conclusion on the topic"vegetative propagation in plants"

Dear Student,

Conclusion on vegetative propagation in plants: 

Vegetative propagation methods can be widely used for the conservation of plants. Plants unable to produce seeds,e.g, sugarcane, rose, grapes, etc can be propagated by these methods. These methods are easier and conventional than growing plants from their seeds. Usually, it takes around 4-7 years for bearing flowers and fruits by the plants but vegetatively propagated plants produce flowers and fruits within 1-2 years. But there are few drawbacks also of these techniques such as the vegetatively propagated plants are genetically similar to their parent plant thus there is no variation which causes a gradual decrease in vigour and becomes more susceptible to diseases which ultimately lead to the destruction of plant species.
