Question

What is the common method of propagation in $Bryophyllum$ ?

• A. Vegetative propagation
• B. Fragmentation
• C. Spore formation
• D. Budding

Answer 1

The correct option is A Vegetative propagation

• In vegetative propagation, any part of the plant, i.e., stem, root, leaf, or even buds are capable to give rise to new plants.
  
• Vegetative propagation through leaves is the common method of propagation seen in $Bryophyllum$.
• If one keeps a leaf of $Bryophyllum$ on damp soil, within a day or two the buds appear on the margin of the leaf. These buds would later form new plants, complete with roots, leaves, and stem.
  

So, the correct answer is option A.
