Examples of Plants that Reproduce by Vegetative Propagation:
Besides sugarcane, the following plants also reproduce by vegetative propagation:
1. Potato:
– Potato reproduces through its underground stem called a tuber.
– The “eyes” of the potato contain buds.
– When a piece of potato with an eye is planted in soil, it grows into a new plant.
2. Rose:
– Rose plants are commonly propagated through stem cuttings.
– A stem cutting planted in soil develops roots and grows into a new plant.
Other Common Examples (for reference):
– Ginger (through rhizome)
– Onion (through bulb)
– Bryophyllum (through leaf buds)
Conclusion:
Plants like potato and rose also reproduce by vegetative propagation, similar to sugarcane.
