Explain artificial methods of vegetative propagation in plants.
Answer:
Cutting – In this, a portion of a plant is cut and planted in the soil, usually a stem or a leaf. ...
Grafting – In this, the cutting from some other plant is added to the plant stem embedded in the soil. ...
Layering – In this, the stem of the plant is bent to the ground and covered with soil.

Answer:-
Artificial vegetative propagation is carried out by stem-cutting , layering grafting and tissue culture.
Stem-cutting
The cutting develops roots and grows into a new plant. Cutting of a healthy young branch of a plant having leaf birds is planted in the moist soil.
Examples:- Rose , sugarcane, and many more.
Layering
A young brands is bent to touch the ground as it is covered with moist soil it forms a layer. when the root develops from the covered part the branch is cut off from the parent plant then it grows into a new plant.
Examples:- Jasmine, Mint.
Grafting
It is a technique of combining the characteristics of to plants. many new varieties of of clans developed by this method.
Examples:- Guava, Lemon.
Tissue culture ( Micropropagation )
Tissue culture is also called micropropagation. It is the process of growing new plants by cell culture or tissue culture technique.
Examples:- Asparagus, Orchids.
More Info:-
- In tissue culture technique of small piece of tissue is cut of from the growing tip of a plant then it's cell divides rapidly and former cell mass called callus. Then the cells of callus in the nutrient medium and differentiate into roots and shoots and form plantlets.
- There are two types of vegetative propagation ( in plants )
- Natural method of vegetative propagation.
- Artificial vegetative propagation.
- Some advantages of vegetative propagation:-
- Rapid multiplication
- Easy to grow
- Genetically identical
- Multiplication without seed formation.
