Question

Write short note on Grafting and layering​

Answer 1

Grafting- Grafting or budding are horticultural techniques used to join parts from two or more plants so that they appear to grow as a single plant. In grafting, the upper part (scion) of one plant grows on the root system (rootstock) of another plant.

Layering- Layering is a means of plant propagation in which a portion of an above-ground stem grows roots while still attached to the parent plant and then detaches as an independent plant. Layering has evolved as a common means of vegetative propagation of numerous species in natural environments.

GRAFTING:

➡️ Grafting is one of the artificial vegetative propagation .

➡️ This method consists of attaching , or tying up, a scionwith a stock .

➡️ A scion is a cutting of a young stem ,white a stock is the base of a rooted plants system.

➡️ The two parts join up after a few days, and then grow as a single plant .

➡️ The scion , also called the graft , and the stock must be of the same or of related species.

➡️ This method is used commonly with mango and rose .

➡️ Buds can also be inserted under the bark of the stem of the stock plant following a similar procedure .

➡️ Any Bud that grows from the stem of the stock plant is removed to allow only the grafted bud to grow .

➡️ Grafting is very useful if one wants to grow a new variety with certain desirable features .

➡️ Such as the colour of a flower or the taste of a fruit .

➡️ The scion is chosen accordingly and inserted into a stock .
