Vegetative propagation creates crops where plants grow with similar structure and characteristics across the entire field. It multiplies plants from a single parent source where identical genetic makeup keeps the same weaknesses and low resistance traits present in every plant across the field. It spreads infections through shared plant material where pathogens transfer during cutting or planting and affect all plants with similar structure in a uniform and widespread manner.
