Plant Propagation

1. common disease which causes stems to rot at soil line
2. pices of plants
5. root pices of young plants
6. plans produced genetically identical to parent plant
8. reproduction of new plants from a part of a parent plant
9. breaking or softening seed coat for absortion of moisture
14. plant created from explant and grown by tissue culture
17. leaf blade with or without petiole attached.
18. seedlings transplanted to larger containers or a permanent location
21. percentage of seeds that will sprout and grow
22. the part of a plant at the soil surface from which new shoots or leaves are produced
23. method where parts of plants are cut into sections that grow into new plants
24. placing seeds in moist soil for certain period of time
27. portions of stem that contain terminal/lateral buds
28. propagtion method where natural strucutres are removed from parent plant
29. reproduction of plants with seeds
30. sugar-based gel from certain algae
31. the lower portion of the graft

1. vegetable and grass seeds planted directly into the soil
3. a short piece of stem with two or more buds
4. small tissue/group of cells, from the parent plant and gorwing on nutrient-rich agar gel
7. process of connecting two plants/parts together to grow as one
10. undifferentiated mass of cells
11. white tissue that forms over wounded area or base of cuttings
12. plants grown from seeds
13. method asexual propagation where roots form on a stem while attached to parent plant
15. transferring genes from one species to another
16. leaf, petiole, and short piece of stem with lateral bud
19. seedlings in cooler areas with less watering
20. the reproduction of new plants
25. culture method of growing explants on an artificial medium under sterile conditions
26. similar to grafting, but the scion is reduced to single bud.
