   Subscribe/Renew Journal


The investigation was conducted at CIAH, Bikaner to standardize the type, time of taking cuttings and effect of plant growth regulators on propagation behaviour of ker (C. decidua). Out of three types (hardwood, semi-hardwood and softwood) only semi-hardwood cuttings showed sprouting (40%) and ischolar_maining (20%). In round the year study, at monthly, interval to evaluate the effect of IBA and/or NAA, it was observed that January, March and August to November are the suitable months for taking cuttings and IBA (7500 ppm) + Thymine (1000 ppm), prepared in DMSO medium, was found to be the optimum concentration.

Abstract


The investigation was conducted at CIAH, Bikaner to standardize the type, time of taking cuttings and effect of plant growth regulators on propagation behaviour of ker (C. decidua). Out of three types (hardwood, semi-hardwood and softwood) only semi-hardwood cuttings showed sprouting (40%) and ischolar_maining (20%). In round the year study, at monthly, interval to evaluate the effect of IBA and/or NAA, it was observed that January, March and August to November are the suitable months for taking cuttings and IBA (7500 ppm) + Thymine (1000 ppm), prepared in DMSO medium, was found to be the optimum concentration.
