(D) Air layering,also known as $gootee$,is a method of vegetative propagation used for woody plants.In this process,a portion of the bark is removed from a stem,covered with moist moss or soil,and wrapped to encourage root development while the stem is still attached to the parent plant.$Litchi$ $(Litchi chinensis)$ is a classic example of a plant where air layering is commonly practiced to produce new,genetically identical plants.Bamboo is typically propagated by rhizome division,while grapevines are often propagated by stem cuttings.
