| Abstract: | Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) strongly enhanced rooting of etiolated pea epicotyl cuttings while gibberellic acid (GA3) enhanced rooting only slightly. The promoting effects of the hormones appeared not until 14 d after the onset of treatment. When GA3 and IAA were applied together, the initiation of rooting started already after 6 d after onset of treatment. It is suggested that gibberellin plays an important role, in combination with auxin, in the initiation of root formation in Pisum cuttings.Abbreviations IAA
