Abstract: | The effect of auxins [indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and -naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA)], phenolics (phloroglucinol and coumarin), a combination of auxins and phenolics, and a systemic fungicide (Bavistin, containing 50% carbendazim) on adventitious root formation in stem cuttings (current season's growth) of Cedrus deodara L. during winter and monsoon (rainy) seasons has been examined. Significant stimulation of rooting due to treatments was observed in cuttings planted in winter in the following order: 0.25 mM IBA (87.5% rooting) > 5 mM coumarin (70.8%) > IBA (0.5 mM) + coumarin (5 mM) (50.0%). In cuttings planted in monsoon only 0.05% Bavistin was found to be effective in inducing rooting (83.3%). Other treatments were ineffective and in some treatments drying of cuttings was noticed. |
