Many grasses reproduce clonally through vegetative parts.
Vegetative parts are covered with aromatic peltate (umbrella shaped) glands.
Hence, protocols providing regeneration from various vegetative parts of the plants are needed.
The vegetative parts (the nonreproductive organs, such as stems and leaves) are consumed by, and support, plant-eating animals.
Most have simple leaves arranged in opposite pairs, with cystoliths (enlarged cells containing crystals of calcium carbonate) in streaks or protuberances in the vegetative parts.
Nectaries also occur on the nonfloral, or vegetative, parts of some angiosperms, such as the leaves and the petioles of bull's-horn thorn (Acacia collinsii; Fabaceae).
The concentration of TPC, which was detected at low levels in the old vegetative parts in both treatments, was not altered in other plant parts.
The only Permian record to date of this group from the Transantarctic Mountains is Collinsonites schopfii Schwendemann et al., which consists of only impressions of vegetative parts.
Propagation of crop plants, involving the formation and development of new individuals in the establishment of new plantings, is usually accomplished by the use of either seeds or the vegetative parts of plants.
However, grazing optimization can occur as short-term response if a plant is adapted to a certain level of herbivory pressure and the photosynthetic ability decreases significantly with the increasing size of vegetative parts.
Similarly, the vegetative parts of nine plants were measured (N content 79.10 ± 4.56 µg).
