Propagation

  • Mango can be raised from seed or propagated vegetatively.

  • Several methods of vegetative propagation have been tried with varying degrees of success.

  • Propagation from seed, though easy and cheap, is unable to perpetuate characters of the parent tree because most commercial varieties in India are cross-pollinated and monoembryonic.

  • Plants also take more time to bear fruit. However, it is essential to raise seedlings to be used as rootstocks.
