"Trench layer" method is used for vegetative propagation of which type of trees?
Answer: B
On the key, trench layering is used for fruit trees.
In trench layering, a young plant is laid flat in a shallow trench and its shoots are covered with soil as they grow, so that each shoot forms roots and can be separated as a new plant. The method is used mainly to multiply clonal rootstocks and plants of fruit trees such as apple, quince, cherry and plum, which root poorly from cuttings.
Flowering and decorative trees are usually propagated by other means, such as cuttings, simple layering, grafting or seed, so the key does not accept those options or 'All of the above'.
