100
Pieces of vegetative material obtained from any of the primary plant organs- stems, leaves, or roots.
What are cuttings?
100
The bottom part of the graft that is in contact with the soil and is not allowed to develop shoots.
What is root stick?
100
This asexual plant propagation method of vegetative prorogation in which roots are generated on a limb before the limb is severed for planting.
What is layering?
100
Underground structures are divided by breaking them apart along the natural lines between segments.
What is separation?
100
Production of new plants from single cell,pieces of tissue, and of small pieces of vegetative material.
What is (micro propagation) tissue culture?
200
This cutting type involves the use of a piece of a leaf or an entire leaf to produce a new plant.
What is a leaf cutting?
200
The plant part that is the top part of the graft and grows to become the desired shoot.
What is scion?
200
Structural barrier layers in plants are formed by these.
What are cutin, suberin, and waxes?
200
Separation of bulblets results in these.
What are bulbs?
200
Differentiated cells that retain the ability to develop into all other cell types.
What are totipotent cells?
300
Dracaena, Ficus, Monstera, Vitis, Camellia, Clematis, Lonicera, Hypericum, and Hedera plants are propagated with this cutting type.
What is a leaf-bud cutting?
300
The diameter of the scion vs. the diameter of the _____ ________ is not a necessary for successful grafting tip.
What is root stock?
300
This root type conjoins the root-shoot junction.
What are crowns?
300
Underground stems are cut into pieces and replanted.
What is division?
300
A mass of undifferentiated cells that arise naturally or can be induced to form as a result of wounding.
What is callus?
400
The section of the stem that contains the terminal bud.
What is stem-tip cutting?
400
When "top grafting" this type og grafting is most efficient.
What is cleft grafting?
400
All of the following are examples of natural layering except one. Tip layering, propagation by runners, mound layering, and propagation by suckers.
What is mound layering?
400
Enlarged, fleshy underground stem.
What are stem tubers?
400
Living vegetative plant material extracted for use in tissue culture.
What is explant?
500
Softwood, semi-hardwood, hardwood, conifer, and herbaceous cuttings are all examples of this cutting type.
What is stem-section cutting?
500
This type of grafting requires both plants are rooted until the graft union heels.
What is approach grafting?
500
This human layering technique involves girdling the stem of the plant, wrapping the girdling with moss and plastic wrap.
What is air layering?
500
Underground stems that grow horizontally.
What are rhizomes?
500
Involves the development of an already existing shoot meristem and, subsequently, the regeneration of adventitious roots from the developed shoots.
What is shoot meristem culture?
