    Types of Asexual Reproduction

    Uploaded by

    MARVIN HILARIO
    There are several types of asexual reproduction including binary fission, budding, sporulation, regeneration, and vegetative propagation. Binary fission involves a parent cell dividing into two equal daughter cells. Budding involves an unequal division where a bud forms off the parent and may remain attached or break off. Sporulation produces many spores within a structure that can grow into new organisms. Vegetative propagation uses plant parts like stems, leaves, or roots that can grow into new plants, either naturally through structures like bulbs, corms, tubers and runners, or artificially through cuttings, layering, and grafting.

    Types of Asexual

    Reproduction
    3/17/2008
    Asexual Reproduction
    • Involves the process of mitosis

    • Offspring are genetically identical


    to parent
    Binary Fission
    • Parent divides into 2 equal
    halves after
    nucleus replicates
    • No parent remains 2 daughter cells
    grow to normal size
    • Occurs in bacteria , protozoa , and
    algae
    Budding
    • Parent organism divides into 2 unequal
    halves
    • Daughter cell forms from outgrowth or
    bud off parent
    • Buds may break off or remain attached and
    form a colony
    • Occurs in hydra and yeast
    Sporulation (spore forming)
    • Production of many spores in a special
    spore producing structure ( spore case )
    • Spores are microscopic , specialized cells,
    containing nucleus and cytoplasm
    within a hard case
    • Occurs in molds , mushrooms , and
    ferns
    Regeneration
    • Ability to grow back missing parts
    • The more complex the organism, the
    harder it is to regenerate
    • Occurs in simple organisms such as
    starfish andflat worm
    Humans?
    Vegetative Propagation
    • piece of a body of a multicellular
    organism gives rise to a new organism
    • Common in plants - using stems,
    leaves, or roots
    • Can occur naturally or artificially
    Natural Vegetative Propagation
    • Bulb- Short underground stem with stored
    food & fleshy leaves Ex. Onion, tulip
    • Corm- Short underground stem with stored
    food Ex. Water chestnut
    • Tuber- Enlarged underground stem
    Ex. potato
    • Runner- (stolon) horizontal stem with buds
    along ground’s surface Ex. strawberry
    • Rhizome- Underground horizontal stem

    Ex. ginger
    Tuber

    Runner

    Bulb

    Rhizome Corm
    Artificial Vegetative Propagation
    • Cutting- use partof plant to
    reproduce (Ex. Spider plant)

    • Layering- stem is bentover and covered with soil


     will root and formnew plant (Ex.raspberry)

    • Grafting- stem or bud of one plant is


    joinedto
    another plant
    permanently
    (Ex. )
    Seedless fruit tree
    scion

    stock

    Layering Grafting
