  2. Cutting (plant) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_(plant)

    Stem cuttings of young wood should be taken in spring from the upper branches, while cuttings of hardened wood should be taken in winter from the lower branches. Common bounds on the length of stem cuttings are between 5–15 centimetres (2.0–5.9 in) for soft wood and between 20–25 centimetres (7.9–9.8 in) for hard wood.

  3. Vegetative reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegetative_reproduction

    Tubers develop from either the stem or the root. Stem tubers grow from rhizomes or runners that swell from storing nutrients while root tubers propagate from roots that are modified to store nutrients and get too large and produce a new plant. [22] Examples of stem tubers are potatoes and yams and examples of root tubers are sweet potatoes and ...

  4. Plant propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_propagation

    Softwood stem cuttings rooting in a controlled environment. Techniques for vegetative propagation include: Air or ground layering; Division; Grafting and bud grafting, widely used in fruit tree propagation; Micropropagation; Offsets; Stolons (runners) Storage organs such as bulbs, corms, tubers, and rhizomes; Striking or cuttings; Twin-scaling

  5. Underground stem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_stem

    Underground stems are modified plant parts that derive from stem tissue but exist under the soil surface. [1] They function as storage tissues for food and nutrients, facilitate the propagation of new clones, and aid in perennation (survival from one growing season to the next). [2]

  6. Layering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Layering

    However, a few inches of leafy growth must remain above the ground for the bent stem to grow into a new plant. Removing a section of skin from the lower-facing stem part before burying may help the rooting process. If using rooting hormone, the stem should be cut just beneath a node. The resultant notch should be wedged open with a toothpick or ...

  7. Pruning - Wikipedia

    One of which is cutting the branch back to a specific and intermediate point, called reduction cut, and the other completely removes a branch back to the union where the branch connects which the main trunk, called removal cut. [5] Reduction cuts is when you remove a portion of a growing stem down to a set of desirable buds or side-branching stems.

  8. Hypocotyl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypocotyl

    As the plant embryo grows at germination, it sends out a shoot called a radicle that becomes the primary root, and then penetrates down into the soil.After emergence of the radicle, the hypocotyl emerges and lifts the growing tip (usually including the seed coat) above the ground, bearing the embryonic leaves (called cotyledons), and the plumule that gives rise to the first true leaves.

  9. Artificial reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_reproduction

    Cutting plants' stems and placing them in compost is a form of assisted artificial reproduction, xenobots are an example of a more autonomous type of reproduction, while the artificial womb presented in the movie the Matrix illustrates a non assisted hypothetical technology. The idea of artificial reproduction has led to various technologies.
