None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In asexual reproduction new plants are obtained without production of seeds. It is a type of asexual reproduction in which new plants are produced from roots, stems, leaves and buds. Since reproduction is through the vegetative parts of the plant, it is known as vegetative propagation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Vegetative propagation is known to be the formation and growth of a new plant by an asexual means or by a fragment of a plant. The propagation takes place without gamete formation and fertilization. Examples of vegetative propagation are the rhizome of ginger, the tuber of the potato, guava tree, etc.
