Grafting is a method of asexual plant propagation that joins plant parts from different plants together so they will heal and grow as one plant. This technique is used to propagate plants that do not root well from cuttings, to utilize superior root systems, or to maintain clonal production.
5 lis 2023 · This chapter on the propagation of horticultural crops aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the different methods of plant propagation used in horticulture such as seed propagation,...
27 lut 2023 · Grafting is a traditional horticultural technique that makes use of plant wound healing mechanisms to join two different genotypes together to form one plant.
Grafting is a technique that involves joining the tissues of two separate plants in such a way that they grow together and function as a single plant. It typically involves a scion (the upper part of the graft) and a rootstock (the lower part onto which the scion is grafted). A Brief History of Grafting.

Grafting. A method that combines material from one plant with prized flowering or fruiting qualities with the roots of another that offers vigour and resilience. This is a difficult task and requires lots of skill and practice. In most cases, trees and shrubs are available to buy ready-grafted onto a rootstock. Most tree fruits and roses are ...
Unlike seed production, grafting is a form of asexual plant propagation. As a result, a plant propagated by grafting, which uses a piece of the parent plant called a scion, results in a genetic clone of the parent plant.
