The major uses of 'vegetative propagation' are:
  • To produce strains of crops. Humans combine two of the same plants with different properties to produce a plant with both the properties. For example they may take a scion from an apple tree that can survive in the cold and attach it to a root stock of an apple tree that produces sweeter fruit to combine the two.
  • Vegetative propagation also includes "cuttings" which are essentially pieces of plant removed form a parent plant and then rooted to produce a new plant.
  • Tissue culture which is in effect doing the same as producing a plant from a cutting, but only under sterile laboratory conditions - and at a microscopic level

Plants propagated vegetatively are genetically identical to the parent plant

Role of roots in vegetative propagation?

Roots play a crucial role in vegetative propagation as they help anchor the plant in the soil and absorb nutrients and water. In some plants, roots can also develop into new shoots or plantlets, allowing for the propagation of the plant through cutting or division. Overall, roots contribute to the growth and establishment of new plants during vegetative propagation.
