Question

Which of the following is not an example of the artificial propagation?

पर्याय

• Fragmentation - the separation of plant parts to develop into whole plants

• Grafting - the attachment of a scion onto a stock plant that provides a root system

• Apomixis - the asexual production of seeds

• Production of fruit without fertilization in parthenocarpic plants.

Answer 1

Production of fruit without fertilization in parthenocarpic plants.

Explanation:

Artificial propagation involves human intervention to reproduce plants vegetatively, such as fragmentation and grafting. Apomixis is a natural asexual seed production method, and parthenocarpy (fruit formation without fertilization) occurs naturally without fertilization and is not a method of artificial propagation. Therefore, production of fruit without fertilization in parthenocarpic plants is not an example of artificial propagation.
