DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Plant propagation is the process of plant reproduction of a species or cultivar, and it can be sexual or asexual. It can happen through the use of vegetative parts of the plants, such as leaves, stems, and roots to produce new plants or through growth from specialized vegetative plant parts.

Detailed explanation-2: -Division of Plant Sciences. Plant propagation is the process of increasing the number of plants of a particular species or cultivar. There are two primary forms of plant propagation: sexual and asexual. In nature, propagation of plants most often involves sexual reproduction, or the production of viable seeds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants propagated by asexual propagation are true-to-type genetically. By top working (using budding and grafting), old and economically low productive fruit plants can be converted into superior ones. Advantages offered by rootstocks and scion can be exploited through asexual method.
