Asexual reproduction is roughly the same as asexual reproduction, and refers to organisms that reproduce sexually by other, irregular means. Examples of natural vegetative reproduction include the growth of bulbils (Japanese yam, tiger lily) and shoots from the tips of branches (spider plant, strawberry). Artificial vegetative reproduction methods include grafting and leaf cuttings. In animals, for example, hydra reproduces by budding, which is the same as vegetative reproduction in plants, but in animals it is customarily referred to as asexual reproduction, and the term vegetative reproduction is not often used.

無性生殖というのとほぼ同義であって,有性生殖を行う生物がそれ以外の変則的な方法で生殖することをさす。天然の栄養生殖の例は,むかご (ヤマノイモ,オニユリ) によるもの,枝の先端からの芽出によるもの (オリヅルラン,イチゴ) などがある。人為的に利用される栄養生殖法としては,挿木,挿葉などがある。動物の場合にも,たとえばヒドラが芽出によってふえるのは植物での栄養生殖と同じことであるが,動物では習慣的に無性生殖といい,栄養生殖の語はあまり用いない。
