The efficiency of rooting of hardwood cutting was investigated in Rosa multiflora, mainly used as a rootstock. Rosa multiflora thornless cultivar 'Hort No. 1' was cut 20cm and stored in 4 cool conditioned chamber for a week in September 20th 2013. The effect of rooting media was investigated by using various media (Vermiculite 100%; Perlite 100%; Vermiculite 50% : Perlite 50%) and was prepated in 24 tray pot for hardwood cutting. Seasonal rooting efficiency was studied for six month periods from Sempember 2013 till March 2014 in the mixed-media (Vermiculite 50% : Perlite 50%) for the hardwood cutting of Rosa multiflora. All the measures were conducted after two months of cutting. The mixed-media showed best rooting efficiency, and hardwood cutting in November was most efficient. Thereafter, we propose to perform hardwood cutting in Rosa multiflora in November in the mixed-media.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
