Give a scientific reason: Grafting is not possible in monocots.
(N/A) Monocot plants possess closed vascular bundles. These bundles do not have cambium. Cambium is a meristematic tissue. In grafting,the union of the stock and scion takes place through the activity of this meristematic tissue. Since monocots lack cambium,they cannot form a successful graft union. Hence,grafting is not possible in monocots.
