Open in App
Solution

Grafting refers to the process of artificial vegetative propagation in plants in which a stem cutting from the desired plant (scion) is inserted in a rooted plant (stock), which is resistant to diseases. Then, they are bound firmly with tape or cloth so that they have vascular continuity. Examples include rose, mango and citrus.
