A scion is a shoot from one plant that, after grafting, grows on the upper part of another plant. The stock receives the scion and serves as the root system for the grafted plant. [1] [2] Graft hybridisation refers to a form of asexual hybridisation where heritable modifications can be induced through grafting. [3]
Nurse grafting of Quercus rubra. Nurse grafting is a method of plant propagation that is used for hard-to-root plant material. If a desirable selection cannot be grown from seed (because a seed-grown plant will be genetically different from the parent), it must be propagated asexually in order to be genetically identical to the parent.
Compatibility of scion and stock: Because grafting involves the joining of vascular tissues between the scion and rootstock, plants lacking vascular cambium, such as monocots, cannot normally be grafted. As a general rule, the closer two plants are genetically, the more likely the graft union will form.
Grafting involves attaching a scion, or a desired cutting, to the stem of another plant called stock that remains rooted in the ground. Eventually both tissue systems become grafted or integrated and a plant with the characteristics of the grafted plant develops, [ 29 ] e.g. mango, guava, etc.
John Harvey Girdner demonstrated skin graft transplant from a deceased donor in 1880. [21] Today, skin grafting is commonly used in dermatologic surgery. [22] Recently Reverdin's technique is used but with very small (less than 3 mm diameter). Such small wounds heal in a short time without scars. This technique is called SkinDot. [23]

Skin grafting – often used to treat skin loss due to a wound, burn, infection, or surgery. In the case of damaged skin, it is removed, and new skin is grafted in its place. Skin grafting can reduce the course of treatment and hospitalization needed, and can also improve function and appearance. There are two types of skin grafts:
