In plants, the vegetative propagules (runner, rhizome, sucker, etc.) are capable of producing new offsprings by the process called vegetative propagation. As the formation of these vegetative propagules does not involve both the parents, the process involved is asexual.
Examples:
- Adventitious buds in the notches along the leaf margins of the Myriophyllum grow to form new plants.
- Potato tuber having buds when grown develops into a new plant.
