Q.96. Grafting is an improved method of vegetative multiplication because
(1) Seeds are not formed
(2) Stock and scion remain intact
(3) Improved seed formation
(4) All of these
Dear student.
The correct answer is (2) Stock and scion remain intact.
Grafting refers to the process of artificial vegetative propagation in plants in which a stem cutting from the desired plant (scion) is inserted in a rooted plant (stock), which is resistant to diseases. Then, they are bound firmly with tape or cloth so that they have vascular continuity. Examples include rose, mango and citrus.
