Which part of the Bryophyllum plant produces buds for vegetative propagation?
ब्रायोफिलम पौधे का कौन-सा भाग कायिक प्रवर्धन के लिए कलिका उत्पन्न करता है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Leaf margins/ पर्ण-किनारे
📖 Explanation
In the plant Bryophyllum, vegetative propagation occurs through buds formed along the leaf margins.
Small plantlets develop at the edges of the leaves. When these plantlets fall onto the soil, they grow into new independent plants. This is a type of natural vegetative propagation.
Thus, the correct answer is leaf margins.
ब्रायोफिलम (Bryophyllum) पौधे में कायिक प्रवर्धन पत्तियों के किनारों (पर्ण-किनारों) पर बनने वाली कलिकाओं द्वारा होता है।
पत्तियों के किनारों पर छोटी-छोटी नई पौध तैयार हो जाती हैं। जब ये जमीन पर गिरती हैं, तो नए स्वतंत्र पौधों में विकसित हो जाती हैं। इसे प्राकृतिक कायिक प्रवर्धन कहते हैं।
इसलिए सही उत्तर है — पर्ण-किनारे।
⭐ Extra Facts / अतिरिक्त तथ्य:
-
Bryophyllum belongs to the succulent family and stores water in its thick leaves.
-
It is often called the “Mother of Thousands” because many plantlets grow from a single leaf.
-
Vegetative propagation produces genetically identical plants (clones).
-
ब्रायोफिलम एक रसीला (succulent) पौधा है जिसकी पत्तियाँ मोटी और जल-संग्राहक होती हैं।
-
इसे “हज़ारों की माँ (Mother of Thousands)” भी कहा जाता है क्योंकि एक पत्ती से अनेक पौधे बनते हैं।
-
कायिक प्रवर्धन से बनने वाले पौधे मूल पौधे के समान (क्लोन) होते हैं।
