Plant reproduction

 

Way of plants reproduction

 
  • Plants needed to reproduce in order to avoid extinction.
 
  • There are multiple ways of plant reproduction:- 
 

1.

 

Seeds 

   
  • Plant that reproduces through seeds.
    • Watermelon 
    • Guava 
    • Chili 
    • Tomato 
    • Papaya
     

2.

 

Spores

   
  • Non-flowering plants that reproduce through spores.
    • Mosses 
    • Mushroom
    • Fern  
     

3.

 

Underground stem 

   
  • Underground stem that will bud and form a new tree.
    • Potato 
    • Carrot 
    • Ginger 
    • Onion
     

4.

 

Leaves

   
  • Plants that reproduce through parents' leaves.
    • Aloe vera 
    • Setawar tree
     

5. 

  Stem cutting 
   
  • When the stem of the plant can reproduce a new plant after being planted. 
    • Sugarcane
    • Cassava 
     

6.

  Sucker 
   
  • Saplings around the parent tree can grow into new trees. 
    • Pineapple 
    • Bamboo 
    • Banana tree
     
 
 

Importance of plant reproduction

 
  • Plants always reproduce to increase their numbers and maintain their species. 
 
  • A species is a group of living things that have the same nature or type.
 
 
 

Single plant, different ways of reproduction

 
  • There are plants that have multiple ways of reproductions. 
 
  • For examples:-
 
  Plants First ways of reproduction  The second way of reproduction
1. Water spinach Stem cutting  Seeds 
2. Tapioca  Stem cutting  Underground stem 
3 Banana tree Sucker  Seeds 
4. Hibiscus tree  Stem cutting  Seeds  
 
 
 

The technology of plant reproduction 

 
  • Other than the conventional way of plant reproduction, we can breed plant by using new technology. 
 
  • The commonly used technology in plant reproduction are:-
 
1.   

Tissue culture 

   

- Produce new plants from the tissue of a parent plant that is placed inside a nutrient medium. 

     
2.  

Marcottage

   

- Marcottage can increase the number of plants without planting the seeds.
