Plant Explain Natural Cloning Occurs Runners Strawberry Lateral

Runners, like those of a strawberry plant, are lateral stems that grow from the parent plant and root where they touch the ground, forming new plants that become independent as the runner withers.

Mansikkakasvin rönsyt ovat lateraalisia varsia, jotka kasvavat emokasvista ja juurtuvat maahan koskettaessaan sitä, muodostaen uusia kasveja, jotka erkaantuvat ja itsenäistyvät rönsyn kuihtuessa.
