Which is the portion on which grafting is done it provides the roots?

The portion on which grafting is done that provides the roots is known as the rootstock or stock. Here are the steps:

1. Choose the plants: The first step in grafting is to choose two plants of the same species or genus. The plant providing the roots is called the rootstock or stock, while the plant providing the upper part is called the scion.

2. Prepare the rootstock: The rootstock should be a healthy plant that has a strong root system. The top of the rootstock is cut off, usually at a slant for a larger surface area.

3. Prepare the scion: The scion is usually a branch from another plant with desirable characteristics. It is cut off from its parent plant, ideally with a bud on it.

4. Attach the scion to the rootstock: The scion is then placed on top of the rootstock, aligning the cut surfaces as closely as possible.

5. Secure the graft: The graft is then secured in place until the scion and rootstock grow together. This can be done
