WHAT IS A CLONE
Cloning has become one of the most efficient ways to grow plant. Clones are the result of asexual or vegetative propagation, whereas, seeds are the result of sexual propagation.
All six of these clones have persistent fruit and have shown good fire blight resistance.

Clone- Any plant propagated vegetatively and therefore considered a genetic duplicate of its parent.
Clone A line of plants propagated from a single mother plant, identical to each other and to the parent.
Club root A fungal disease causing swollen roots.
CLONE - A genetically identical group of plants, created from one individual by vegetative propagation.
CLUB ROOT - A disease of cabbages and some related vegetables caused by the slime mold fungus.
clone A plant group whose members have all been derived from a single individual through constant propagation by vegetative (asexual) means, e.g. by buds, bulbs, grafts, cuttings, or laboratory tissue culture.

A number of clones of Amelanchier arborea or hybrids of A. arborea x A. laevis (called A. x grandiflora) are listed, but they're hard to find. 'Autumn Brilliance' and 'Autumn Sunset' were selected for their good orange to red fall color.
Though they are clones, aphids can change after final molting, and some of them develop wings. This new generation of aphids then will produce others with wings.

The stock plant should be healthy and well branched to ensure the health of the new clones.
Using a sharp clean knife, take a cutting 3 or 4 inches in length from the top growing tips or vigorous side shoots.
clone A genetically identical plant resulting from asexual propagation (cuttings, layering, grafting, or tissue culture). conic Cone shaped, conical convex Curved outward.
It is a clone of the "Northern Lights' group released a few years ago. Noted for extreme hardiness, plants mature at 5 feet high and wide, give lightly fragrant flowers in late May or early June.
To be sure that every plant will look like every other, you need to work with clones.
Some breeders worry that the exclusive use of grafted trees in American orchards is a prescription for disaster, since cloned trees, cut off from the broader Malus gene pool, are less able to adapt to increasing insect and disease pressure.
Clones and seed progeny of these selections are being subjected to high disease pressure by University of Tennessee researchers Dr. Effin Graham and Dr. Mark Windham to confirm their resistance.
Now when a suitable new flower is found it can be cloned and propagated by tissue culture for mass production.
More often than not, a bulblet is an excact clone of the parent bulb except in those rare cases when a sport is formed (through a genetical mutation when the offspring end up exibihiting a distinct change from the parent).
Uses and Combinations: Sow morning glories and moonflowers on the same trellis or arbor for morning to evening color. Camouflage an unattractive cyclone or stockade fence: stems will climb naturally up cyclone fencing; ...

Damping-off - fungus disease that attacks young seedlings and cuttings causing them to rot at the base: Over-watering is the main cause of damping-off.
These runners will eventually develop their own roots, resulting in a clone plant. Once these adventitious roots establish in the soil, the runners begin to dry up and shrivel away.
Exotic ferns are indigenous to tropical, humid climates, and dozens of different varieties, species, families, hybrids and clones of exotic ferns exist. When looking for an unusual variety of fern, use the categories below to help focus the search.
Start with plants, since seeds usually don't grow into clones of their parents.
The scion:
This is the selected part which produces the desired fruit or flowers on the mature plant. Scion varieties are refered to as clones and are usually named for easy reference such as apple 'Gala' or plum 'Burbank'.
Picea pungens 'Montgomery' - Colorado Spruce. A compact clone that's one of the best of the blues.
Juniperus squamata 'Blue Carpet' - Singleseed Juniper. This juniper with silver-blue foliage makes a good ground cover.
A small part of the plant you wish to reproduce is reproduced by cellular division and then multiplied to produce an exact replica or clone.
If you want exact clones of your canna plant, you'll need to propagate by division.
If you leave this until the summer, then you can use any soft stem cuttings for propagation - in effect producing clones from your parent plant.
Once picked, store tomatoes in dark, warm conditions. DO NOT REFRIGERATE TOMATOES! Ever! Fresh tomatoes start to fall off the flavor wagon as soon as they go below 55°; you might as well buy those soulless, tasteless clones at the supermarket.
This enables the plant to better adapt itself to the environment it is in, or acquire traits that will help it become more disease resistant. Self-pollinators on the other hand, essentially produce clones, ...
propagation - In gardening, various methods of starting new plants ranging from starting seeds to identical clones created by cuttings or layering.
