The formation of a new plant from stem, root or leaf is known as Vegetative Propagation. This procedure of regeneration is often seen among higher plants.
Examples:
(i) Germination of onion bulb
(ii) Germination of potato tuber stem.
*Instead of this natural method, simulated or artificial vegetative propagation can also be utilized to grow the production rate. Three commonly used methods of vegetative propagation include grafting, budding, layering and cutting.
