Propagation Environment
$200
A micaceous mineral that
absorbs water yet allows
drainage; contains
magnesium and potassium
and when moistened is
easily compressed
back
Propagation Environment
$400
The most widely used
structured sheet material today
for greenhouses providing 90%
light transmission
back
Propagation Environment
$600
The state change of water
to vapor in air
back
Propagation Environment
$800
The ability of soil per unit
bulk volume to hold water
back
Propagation Environment
$1000
A photomorphogenic receptor
functioning as a biological
switch turning responses on
and off
back
Seeds $200
Seeds that are unable to
withstand maturation drying
back
Seeds $400
A mechanical or chemical
treatment process that allows
water to penetrate seeds with a
hard seed coat
back
Seeds $600
Appears positive in the
presence of dehydrogenase
enzymes involved in respiration
back
Seeds $800
Type of dormancy in which the
radicle emerges and develops
in the first season after
planting but the plumule does
not emerge until the second
season
back
Seeds $1000
Seed production of new plants
without mixing of gametes
back
Cuttings $200
Stem cutting of a deciduous
plant taken from dormant,
mature wood in late fall, winter
or early spring, after the leaves
have abscised.
back
Cuttings $400
Root that develops on a
cutting only after the cutting is
made, in response to the
wounding effect in preparing
the cuttings.
back
Cuttings $600
A plant hormone, natural or
artificially applied, that is a
requirement for initiation of
adventitious roots.
back
Cuttings $800
Plant or plant part made up
of two or more genetically
distinct tissues growing
adjacent to one another.
back
Cuttings $1000
The capability of previously
developed, differentiated cells
to return to a meristematic
condition and develop a new
growing point.
back
Grafting/Budding
$200
The top part of the grafted
plant or the portion that is to
become the top of the grafted
plant.
back
Grafting/Budding
$400
A type of grafting in which
the scion consists of only
one bud, a small section of
bark, and a piece of wood.
back
back
Grafting/Budding
$600
The proximal end of a scion is
attached to the distal end of
the stock to change the scion
of an established planting.
back
Grafting/Budding
$800
Relatively simple and economical
production no transmission of
viruses, and sometimes deeper
and more firmly anchored roots
are advantages of this class of
rootstock.
back
Grafting/Budding
$1000
The tendency for some plants
to become reproductive
sooner than others of the
same kind.
back
Micropropagation
$200
Cell division of nondifferentiated parenchyma cells
back
Micropropagation
$400
The potential for each living cell
to reproduce an entire organism
back
Micropropagation
$600
Adenine-based compound
used in multiplication stage
of micropropagation
back
Micropropagation
$800
Developmental stage of
micropropagation where cells
shift from heterotrophic to
autotrophic condition
back
Micropropagation
$1000
Development of embryos
from vegetative cells rather
than from union of male and
female gametes
