Abstract:The budding technique propagation requires rootstock, which are raised from rubber seeds. Due to repeated leaf fall disease since 2015, seed production dropped and threatened the rubber-replanting program. Amid this situation, young trees may be a temporary source of the seeds for rootstocks, which under normal conditions is not recommended. To test this hypothesis, a comparison of germination rate, seedling growth, and biomass accumulation of the seeds from young and mature PB 260 rubber trees was carried out… Show more
