Lecture Power Point: Asexual Propagation

Asexual Propagation

Grafting is one of the techniques described in this week’s unit. It is an advanced technique that is widely used for roses and fruit trees to combine the desirable qualities of a rootstock plant and a scion (flowering or fruiting stem).

Other propagation techniques also take advantage of the vegetative reproduction and healing properties of specific plants. Many of our most important horticultural plants are replicated as clones using cuttings, divisions or increasingly, tissue culture technology. The ownership rights of producers of many of these plants are protected by plant patents as we discussed last week.
