===Vegetative propagation=== {{main|Vegetative propagation}} [[File:Bryophyllum daigremontianum nahaufnahme1.jpg|thumb|Vegetative plantlets of mother-of-thousands, ''[[Bryophyllum daigremontianum|Bryophyllum daigremontianum (Kalanchoe daigremontiana)]]'']] [[Vegetative propagation]] is a type of asexual reproduction found in plants where new individuals are formed without the production of seeds or spores and thus without [[syngamy]] or [[meiosis]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/glossary/gloss6/asexual.html |title=Asexual Reproduction |publisher=Ucmp.berkeley.edu |access-date=13 August 2010}}</ref> Examples of vegetative reproduction include the formation of miniaturized plants called plantlets on specialized leaves, for example in kalanchoe (''[[Bryophyllum daigremontianum]]'') and many produce new plants from [[rhizome]]s or [[stolon]] (for example in [[Garden strawberry|strawberry]]). Some plants reproduce by forming [[bulb]]s or [[tuber]]s, for example [[tulip]] bulbs and ''[[Dahlia]]'' tubers. In these examples, all the individuals are clones, and the clonal population may cover a large area.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fs.fed.us/wildflowers/communities/aspen/grow.shtml |title=Celebrating Wildflowers β Fading Gold β How Aspens Grow |publisher=Fs.fed.us |date=11 May 2010 | archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20100923073834/http://www.fs.fed.us/wildflowers/communities/aspen/grow.shtml | archive-date= 23 September 2010 | url-status= live}}</ref>
