Cavendish bananas, the most common bananas at most grocery stores, are grown by planting rhizomes from an established plant. Several young plants can be seen in this photo. What are the advantages and potential problems with growing bananas through the use of vegetative reproduction?

Advantages of planting banana using vegetative propagation are

Production of new individuals which are identical and have similar characteristics as the parent

It is use to produce plants that did not have viable seeds for planting

The desirable traits or characteristics of the plants can be maintained

The flowers that are produced during vegetative propagation are of good quality

Potential problems are,

. It prevent genetic diversity of banana species and can lead to reduction in the yield of banana that is produced because same characteristics is passed to individual.

2. Since similar characteristics is been passed to new individuals, they are subscetiple to the same pathogenic bacteria, viruses of fungi attack which can destroy plants.

Explanation:

Vegetative propagation is a type of asexual propagation in which part of the parent plants structures us use to grow new plants.

Advantages of growing banana using vegetative methods are;

1. Production of new individuals which are identical and have similar characteristics as the parent. Since part if the parent is use for propagation the characteristics exhibited by the parent will reflect on the new individuals.

2. It is use to produce plants that did not have viable seeds for planing.

3. The desirable traits or characteristics of the plants can be maintained because it is been passed from the parent plants to new individuals produced.

4. The flowers that are produced during vegetative propagation are of good quality.

Potential problems

1. It prevent genetic diversity of banana species and can lead to reduction in the yield of banana that is produced because same characteristics is passed to individual.

2. Since similar characteristics is been passed to new individuals, they are subscetiple to the same pathogenic bacteria, viruses of fungi attack which can destroy plants.
