T-budding |
A technique for converting a vine from one specific variety to another, such as from zinfandel to sauvignon blanc. This process is done by cutting off the fruit-bearing part of the vine and grafting the new variety to a T-shaped incision made in the top portion of the rootstock. This process speeds up the time in which the new variety is productive by 2 to 3 years. A newly planted vine might take 3 years or more to become fully productive, whereas a variety created by T-budding can be fully productive in the second year. This process is widely used in California and Australia, where it's called green grafting.

Budding |
Budding is a form of asexual reproduction in which a new organism grows on another one. The new organism remains attached as it grows, separating from the parent organism only when it is mature. Since the reproduction is asexual, the newly created organism is a clone and is genetically identical to the parent organism. A new organism grows from an outgrowth or bud on the parent.

Some cells split via budding, for example Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the yeast species used in baking and brewing. This process results in a 'mother' and a smaller 'daughter' cell.
In virology, budding is a form of viral shedding by which enveloped viruses acquire their external envelope from the host cell membrane, which bulges outwards and encloses the virion.
In embryology, the term budding is applied to the process of embryo differentiation, in which new structures are formed in outgrowth from pre-existing parts.
In agriculture and horticulture, budding refers to grafting the bud of one plant onto another.
