    Study Notes

    Plant Propagation Methods

    • Cloning refers to the multiplication of genetically identical individuals by asexual methods of regeneration from somatic tissues or organs.

    Micropropagation

    • Micropropagation requires aseptic conditions, a nutrient-rich medium, and controlled temperature and humidity.
    • Micropropagation is a method of clonal propagation of plants using modern plant tissue culture methods.
    • The main advantage of micropropagation is the rapid multiplication of plant stock material to produce many progeny plants.

    Traditional Clonal Propagation

    • Grafting is a traditional method used for clonal propagation of plants.
