ok now i get it thnx :)
i got it from wikipedia In horticulture, a propagule is any plant material used for the purpose of plant propagation. In asexual reproduction, a propagule may be a woody, semi-hardwood, or softwood cutting, leaf section, or any number of other plant parts. In sexual reproduction, a propagule is a seed or spore. In micropropagation, a type of asexual reproduction, any part of the plant may be used, though it is usually a highly meristematic part such as root and stem ends or buds. This says progules word is used for any material used to propagate plant irrespective of method i.e. sexual or asexual method
ok. thnx
