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. In micropropagation, a type of asexual reproduction, any part of the plant may be used, though it is usually a highly meristematic part.
