Cloning

Cloning in horticulture refers to the process of making new plants that are genetically similar to the original plant. This process is performed by taking a part of the plant, like a leaf or stem. This part is then utilized to grow a new plant. Cloning is performed using various processes, such as leaf or stem cutting, or tissue culture. 

Cloning in horticulture is preferred most by farmers and orchardists. This is because it allows them to get the best plants with qualities like high fruit yield or beautiful flowers. As the process does not include using seeds, it saves time and effort. Another advantage of cloning is that it helps protect rare plant species. This allows scientists to develop new plant varieties with better features.
