    Question: T-budding is practiced in: (IGKV CET Horti 2018)

    Options:

    Rose
    Citrus
    Apple
    All of these

    ✅Explanation: T-budding, a prevalent technique in plant propagation, is employed for a range of species, notably:
    -Roses: In rose propagation, T-budding plays a key role. It involves grafting a selected variety (bud) onto a robust rootstock, allowing the creation of new rose bushes with desired characteristics.
    -Citrus: Citrus trees, including oranges, lemons, and grapefruits, are commonly propagated through T-budding. This technique ensures that the new tree inherits the qualities of the chosen variety while benefiting from the well-established root system of the rootstock.
    -Apple: T-budding is a suitable method for propagating apple trees, particularly when introducing new, disease-resistant varieties onto existing rootstocks, thereby enhancing the resilience of apple trees to various diseases.

    🔴 Related terminologies:
    -Scion: The part of the plant containing the bud that will be grafted onto the rootstock.
    -Rootstock: The lower portion of the plant that provides the root system for the new plant.
    -Cambium: The layer of tissue in vascular plants responsible for lateral growth. Successful T-budding relies on the joining of the cambium layers of the scion and rootstock.
