The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Plants**: The question mentions two plants: Mango and Guava. 2. **Understand Propagation Methods**: The options provided for propagation methods are tissue culture, grafting, stem cuttings, and layering. We need to determine which method is commonly used for mango and guava. 3. **Define Grafting**: Grafting is a method of vegetative propagation where a shoot system (called the scion) from one plant is joined with the root system (called the stock) of another plant. This method allows for the combination of desirable traits from both plants. 4. **Apply Grafting to Mango and Guava**: Both mango and guava are commonly propagated using the grafting method. In this process, the shoot system of the mango or guava is taken and grafted onto a compatible root system. 5. **Conclusion**: Since grafting is the method used for propagating both mango and guava, the correct answer to the question is grafting. **Final Answer**: Mango and Guava are propagated through grafting. ---
