Question
Write in short the vegetative Reproduction in Bryophyllum, Adiantum, Dalhia, Zingiber (Zinger) and Oxalis.
Answer
- Bryophyllum: Bryophyllum reproduces vegetatively through its specialized leaves that have small plantlets forming along their edges. These plantlets can grow into new plants when they detach from the parent leaf and fall to the ground.
- Adiantum: Adiantum reproduces vegetatively through its rhizomes, which produce new fronds and roots. The new fronds grow from the rhizomes and form a new plant.
- Dahlia: Dahlia reproduces vegetatively through tubers, which are swollen underground stems. Each tuber has buds that can grow into new plants when the tuber is planted in the soil.
- Zingiber (Zinger): Zingiber reproduces vegetatively through its rhizomes, which produce new shoots and roots. These rhizomes can be separated to propagate new plants.
- Oxalis: Oxalis reproduces vegetatively through its bulbs, which produce new plants. The bulbs can be separated to propagate new plants.
