This course is primarily for horticulture students and students from relevant fields. Fundamental principles of plant propagation are studied, including biological basis of propagation, seed propagation, vegetative propagation, and tissue culture propagation. Techniques and applications are also discussed, including introduction of the techniques and selected case studies. Lab section is required, because the lab work is designed to reinforce the lecture material by giving students an opportunity to observe horticultural applications and their parts firsthand and to do experiments.
