Ferns and Mosses reproduce by spore formation. In the spore formation, the parent plant produces hundreds of tiny spores in spore cases and when the spore case of the plant bursts, then the spores spread into the air. As the spores are very light, they keep floating into the air and are carried over large distances by air and when the air-borne spores land on soil under favorable conditions they germinate and produce new plants.

Spirogyra and Fucus are fungi.
Dahlia and Sweet potatoes reproduce by root tubers.
Grapes and Jasmine reproduce by stem layering.
