OBJECTIVE FORESTRY

Detailed explanation-1: -A stem can generate roots while still linked to the parent plant using the asexual propagation technique known as layering. As the new plant’s roots spread out, the parent plant supplies it with nutrients and water. Layering is helpful for plants that are challenging to duplicate using standard techniques.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plants have two main types of asexual reproduction: vegetative reproduction and apomixis. Vegetative reproduction results in new plant individuals without the production of seeds or spores. Many different types of roots exhibit vegetative reproduction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Asexual plant propagation methods produce new plants from vegetative parts of the original plant, such as the leaves, stems and roots. These methods are generally referred to as vegetative propagation. Many plants can reproduce this way naturally, but vegetative propagation can also be artificially induced.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: Vegetative reproduction is a kind of asexual reproduction in which structures or any part of the plant is capable to develop a completely new plant, that is genetically identical to the parent plant.

Detailed explanation-5: -What is Layering? Layering is a technique of plant propagation where the new plant remains at least partially attached to the mother plant while forming new roots and can occur naturally through modified stem structures (Table 1).
