Propagule

#2
Front (Question)

Advantages of asexual propagation

Back (Answer)

-reaches maturity quickly -allows propagation of difficult plants -produces uniform growth -maintains unique characteristics

#3
Front (Question)

Disadvantages of asexual propagation

Back (Answer)

-plant propagules lose viability quickly -Number of plant propagules from a stock is low -Diseases spread easily -More expensive than seed propagation

#4
Front (Question)

What is the most common type of asexual propagation?

Back (Answer)

Vegetative cuttings (stem, root, or leaf cuttings)

#5
Front (Question)

The process of joining two different plants to form a more desirable new plant

Back (Answer)

Roses, citrus, apples, and grapes

#10
Front (Question)

7 objectives of pruning

Back (Answer)

• Health and safety • Maintain desired form • Dwarfing • Invigoration • Increase productivity • Equalize root/shoot ratio • Develop strong branch framework

#11
Front (Question)

Which type of branch angle is better for pruning

Back (Answer)

Wide (Y) Crotch angle is stronger (V is selectively pruned out as it is weaker)

Processes that release energy

Back (Answer)

Exergonic process

#17
Front (Question)

What happens to water as plants absorb it?

Back (Answer)

It is oxidized (loses electrons)
