Plant propagation information


Gentian seedlings in a plant nursery

Plant propagation is the process by which new plants grow from various sources, including seeds, cuttings, and other plant parts. Plant propagation can refer to both man-made or natural dispersal of seeds.

Propagation typically occurs as a step in the overall cycle of plant growth. For seeds, it happens after ripening and dispersal; for vegetative parts, it happens after detachment or pruning; for asexually-reproducing plants, such as strawberry, it happens as the new plant develops from existing parts.[1] Plant propagation can be divided into four basic types: sexual, asexual (vegetative), layering, and grafting.

Countless plants are propagated each day in horticulture and agriculture. The materials commonly used for plant propagation are seeds and cuttings.

The use of plant propagation has become increasingly more popular for medical plant breeding. Due to the large amount of the world that utilizes traditional medicine which includes the use of medicinal plants it has become very important to utilize the use of plant propagation. This also has to do with the herbal medicine community, which is becoming more popular.[2] The use of plant propagation is also important in the production of food production. Taking into account the dietary change each year the world is constantly changing and needing more and more production to occur. Plant propagation has become an important role in our food sources.[3]
