Some examples of vegetative propagation are farmers creating repeated crops of apples, corn, mangoes or avocados through asexual plant reproduction rather than planting seeds Vegetative propagation can be accomplished from sideshoots, slips, stems and sections of tubers, bulbs or rhizomes Plant reproduction without seeds Not every plant grows from a seed Some plants, like ferns and mosses, grow from spores Other plants use asexual vegetative reproduction and grow new plants from rhizomes or tubers We can also use techniques like grafting or take cuttings to make new plants Rights University of WaikatoThe seed is thus a dormant embryo sporophyte with stored food and protective coats Its two functions are dispersal of the species to new locations (aided in angiosperms by the fruit) survival of the species during unfavorable climatic periods (eg, winter) "Annual" plants (eg, beans, cereal grains, many weeds) can survive freezing only as
