Artificial Vegetative Propagation
Certain flowering plants have the capacity to develop a part of their somatic body into a new independent plant. In artificial vegetative propagation, such plants are identified and special techniques are applied to obtain new independent plant. Horticulture ..
Artificial System of Classification
The earliest attempt towards classification of living organisms is seen in the works of many ancient philosophers in Greek and India. The information available from many ancient scriptures of our country indicates the attempts made by Indians towards classification of plants and animals. An ancient..

Asexual Reproduction
New individuals are produced from a single parent without the act of fusion of gametes. The new individuals so formed are generally identical to the parent plant, as only mitotic divisions take place during their development. Regeneration of new plants from portions of..
Introduction
There have been several attempts to classify angiosperms, the flowering plants. One of the earliest attempts in this direction was that of Carolus Linnaeus. He attempted a classification of angiosperms based on the characteristics related to flowers. Subsequent taxonomists also ..
Shoot Senescence
In certain herbaceous perennials such as banana and gladiolus, the above the ground part of the shoot dies each year after flowering and fruiting but the underground parts (stem and roots) survive and put out new shoots the next ye..
Speciation
The plant hydrangea can have pink "flowers" or blue "flowers" (they're actually modified leaves). But we do not classify the two forms as different species. In fact, one could allow a blue-"flowered" plant to become a pink-"flowered" plant just by changing th..
Mendel's Work
Gregor Mendel was the first to carry out scientific studies on transmission of characteristics from the parent to the offspring. He selected garden peas as they showed many contrasting traits that were easy to track through the generations. Moreover, these plants are naturally self-pollinated. This..
Vernalisation
Lysenko (1928) a Russian geneticist found that artificial cold treatment of germinating winter wheat seeds could induce flowering if grown in spring. This process of cold treatment that hastens flowering is called vernalisaio..
