Advantages of vegetative propagation <ul><li>Quicker and more certain.</li><li>Produces identical quality as the parent.</li><li>Plants that do not have viable seed, can be reproduced.</li><li>Flowers produced are of superior quality.</li><li>Desirable character of fruit can be maintained.</li></ul>Disadvantages of vegetative reproduction <ul><li>Does not produce new variety.</li><li>Leads to overcrowding around the parent plant.</li><li>Very little possibility of dispersal.</li></ul>

Agricultural scientists and horticulturists are trying to improve their products in &nbsp;two principal ways: 1. By growing desired variety of a plant in large numbers. <ul><li>Vegetative propagation</li><li>Micropropagation</li></ul>2. By evolving new varieties of plant with desired characteristics. <ul><li>Hybridisation</li></ul>
