Chapter 29, Problem 15SQ
Summary Introduction
Introduction: A developing plant that is covered by a protective outer covering is called as seed. They is the results of fertilization of the ovules. Vegetative reproduction is a mode of asexual reproduction from which new shoots and roots are developed from the fragments of a parent plant. They include budding, cuttings, grafting, and air layering techniques. The seedless fruit produced by certain plants can be propagated through the process of grafting.
