[Extra information:
Artificial propagation of plants is the man-made technique in which a large number of new plants are cultivated from the mother plant by giving them a suitable environment.
The three common methods of artificial propagation of plants are
cutting, layering and grafting.
Cutting is a method of vegetative propagation where a part of a plant, specifically a stem comprising buds on it is cut from the plant using a sharp knife. This stem is then buried in a suitable medium. After some days, the new plant is formed from the adventitious roots developing from the cutting.
In grafting, two plants of the desired traits are chosen, then the plant that has been chosen as the scion (stem without roots) is cut slantingly, then the stock (stem with roots) is also cut in the same manner from the other plant. After that, the scion is placed over the stock and tightly joined together in such a way with a piece of cloth or using a polythene sheet that it grows as a single plant.]
