Asexual reproduction in plants occurs through their vegetative parts such as leaves, roots, stem, and buds This is called vegetative propagation For example, potato tubers, runners/stolon, onion bulbs, etc, all reproduce through vegetative propagation Spore Formation Spore formation is another means of asexual reproductionAsexual reproduction includes fission, budding, fragmentation, and parthenogenesis, while sexual reproduction is achieved through the combination of reproductive cells from two individuals The ability of a species to reproduce through fragmentation depends on the size of part that breaks off, while in binary fission, an individual splits off and forms two individuals of the same sizeActivities Thanks to generous support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, the National Science Foundation and the Cornell Biotechnology Program, CIBT has developed over 100 labs and classroom activities
