Define Propagation Propagation: the increase of a plant species from one generation to the next List the two types of plant propagation Sexual propagation: The union of a male and female gamete. Produces a genetically unique offspring. Asexual propagation: The “clone” of a plant that is genetically identical to the “mother plant.” Define germination Germination: the development of a seed from a resting stage to a stage of growth. Stages of Germination Identify the life cycle of plants Annuals: Germinate, grow, flower and die in one growing season. Identify the parts of a seed Seed Coat: Hard surface that protects the interior of a plant. Comprised of two coats Testa: outer layer Endosperm/Cotyledons: Food storage section of the seed. It supplies enough energy for the plant to grow until the leaves start to produce energy. Embryo: The miniature plant that forms from the union of the sex gametes. Four parts Plumule: 1st terminal bud Develops into the first shoot that emerges from the seed. Hypocotyl: 1st true stem Causes the plumule and cotyledons to emerge from the seed. Radicle: 1st root of the plant 1st to emerge from the seed Cotyledons: 1st leaf or leaves that emerge from the seed. They fall off after the 1st true leaves form. Define seed dormancy Seed Dormancy: A protective condition that prevents the s
