stems & leaves bear adventitious buds & bring about the formation of new plant s .
1) Vegetative reproduction by roots: The roots of some plants develop adventitious buds on them. E.g;
Daldergia (Shisham), Guava, Murraya, Albizzia lebbek, etc. Some tuberous adventitious roots besides
possessing adventitious buds also contain sufficient quantities of food, e.g; Dahlia & sweet potato. These
buds sprout under suitable conditions. These sprouts may be separated & planted. In Shisham (Tahli) young
fast growing shoots will arise from the roots around the cut stumps of trees.
Example: Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas): It is a
modification of adventitious roots. These roots grow
from the nodes of a running stem & they are
irregularly swollen due to the storage of food, hence
they are called tuberous roots. They are called simple
tuberous because they arise singly (one at each node)
& not in clustures. They even give rise to
adventitious buds which when detached, can give
rise to new plants, thus performing the function of
vegetative propagation.
2) Vegetative reproduction by stem: Aerial weak
stems (runner, stolons) when they touch the ground,
give of adventitious roots. Thereafter, if connection
breaks from the parent plant, the portion with newly formed roots develops into an independent plant.
Stolon is also a weak aerial shoot which helps in vegetative propagation. E.g; Vallisneria. Straggling &
branched rhizomes also reproduce by vegetative propagation. E.g;Banana, Ginger, Turmeric. Decay of
older parts isolate the newly formed branches. The latter henceforth leads an independent life. Corms like
Colocasia (Kachalu), Freesia, Crocus etc. have sufficient stored food & also bear many adventitious buds.
A bulb also bears a number of buds E.g; Garlic & Narcissus. The buds are separated & develop into new
plants.
· Stem Tuber: Tuber of potato is a swollen apical part of an underground stem branch & bears number
of nodes or eyes. Each eye bear one or many buds. New plants are produced from the buds present on
the eye. The suckers of Mint & Chrysanthemum also serves as organ for vegetative multiplication.
Bulbils are small, fleshy speacialized buds. They fall on the ground & produce new individuals. E.g;
Agave (Century plant), Dioscorea & Pineapple. In agave flower buds develop into bulbils which drop
on ground to produce new plants thus doing vegetative propagation from reproductive organs.
Underground stem of potato, Onion & Zamicand are used for vegetative propagation. The plants with
subaerial modification like in Pistia, Eichhornia & Pineapple are used for multiplication of plants.
Runner *: The runner is a slender prostate branch with a short & long internodes. It rises from the base
of the plant. It creeps on thr ground & roots at nodes. Runner arises from the axillary bud & creeps
away some distance from the parent plant. It produces roots & grow into new plant. It may break off
the parent plant.Many runners are produced from a mother plant. They spread on the grounds on all
sides.On getting detached from the parent plant, the shoot develops as independent plants. The runner
is meant for vegetative propagation. E.g; Cynodon, Strawberry, Grasse etc.
3) Vegetative propagation by Leaves: In some plants adventitious buds are developed on their
leaves. E.g; Bryophyllum, Begonia, Streptocarpus, Kalanchoe & Saintpaulia. In Bryophyllum notched
margins of succulent leaves bear adventitious buds. These buds usally remain dormant,when the leaf is
attached with the plant. However when the leave come in contact with the soil,develop new plantkets along
the margins. However in some species of Bryophyllum, plantlets develop along the margins of intact
leaves. In Begonia & Sensevieria adventitious buds are produced at the place of injury

What organism uses vegetative propagation?
Plants are the primary organisms that use vegetative propagation. This process allows them to reproduce asexually by using parts of the parent plant such as stems, roots, or leaves to grow a new plant. Examples include strawberries, potatoes, and spider plants.
What kind of plant that go through vegetative propagation?
Plants that can undergo vegetative propagation include succulents, such as jade plants and aloe vera, as well as herbs like mint and basil. Other examples include spider plants, snake plants, and pothos, which can be easily propagated from cuttings or offsets.
