  2. Plant tissue culture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_tissue_culture

    The propagation of shoots or nodal segments is usually performed in four stages for mass production of plantlets through in vitro vegetative multiplication but organogenesis is a standard method of micropropagation that involves tissue regeneration of adventitious organs or axillary buds directly or indirectly from the explants.

  3. Vegetative reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegetative_reproduction

    Vegetative reproduction (also known as vegetative propagation, vegetative multiplication or cloning) is a form of asexual reproduction occurring in plants in which a new plant grows from a fragment or cutting of the parent plant or specialized reproductive structures, which are sometimes called vegetative propagules.

  4. Fruit tree propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit_tree_propagation

    The new plant is severed only after it has successfully grown roots. Layering is the technique most used for propagation of clonal apple rootstocks. The most common method of propagating fruit trees, suitable for nearly all species, is grafting onto rootstocks. This in essence involves physically joining part of a shoot of a hybrid cultivar ...

  5. Rhizome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhizome

    In botany and dendrology, a rhizome (/ ˈ r aɪ z oʊ m / RY-zohm) [note 1] is a modified subterranean plant stem that sends out roots and shoots from its nodes. Rhizomes are also called creeping rootstalks or just rootstalks. [3] Rhizomes develop from axillary buds and grow horizontally. The rhizome also retains the ability to allow new shoots ...

  6. Micropropagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micropropagation

    Micropropagation has a number of advantages over traditional plant propagation techniques: The main advantage of micropropagation is the production of many plants that are clones of each other. Micropropagation can be used to produce disease-free plants.

  7. Propagator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagator

    In quantum field theory, the theory of a free (or non-interacting) scalar field is a useful and simple example which serves to illustrate the concepts needed for more complicated theories. It describes spin-zero particles. There are a number of possible propagators for free scalar field theory. We now describe the most common ones.

  8. Syringa reticulata - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syringa_reticulata

    Syringa reticulata, the Japanese tree lilac, [1] is a species of flowering plant in the family Oleaceae. It is native to eastern Asia, and is grown as an ornamental in Europe and North America. It is native to eastern Asia, and is grown as an ornamental in Europe and North America.

  9. Basal shoot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basal_shoot

    As for basal shoots, stool beds involve cutting a juvenile plant proximate to the surface of the soil and heaping soil over the cut so that basal shoots will form adventitious roots and later can be severed to form multiple, rooted, new plants. The technique is used especially for vegetative propagation of rootstocks for apple trees. [4]
