Asexual/Vegetative Reproduction: Artificial Methods
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Horticulturists propagate plants via grafting, joining scion to rootstock; cuttings, rooting a detached stem; layering, rooting a bent stem; and micropropagation, growing plantlets in sterile culture.
Show
Grafting joins a fruit-producing scion to disease-resistant stock, combining favorable traits from two plants in one tree.
Watch for
A grafted tree's scion and stock stay genetically distinct — joining two individuals without merging their genomes.
