Plant cloning is a method of producing new plants that are genetically identical to a parent plant. This process can be achieved through techniques such as cuttings, grafting, or tissue culture. Cloning allows for the propagation of desirable traits, such as disease resistance or specific flower colors, ensuring that the new plants maintain the same characteristics as the original. Cloning is commonly used in agriculture and horticulture to produce large quantities of plants quickly and efficiently. It helps farmers and gardeners replicate successful varieties without the variability that comes from traditional seed propagation. This technique is essential for maintaining the quality and consistency of crops.
