Ahmed Abd Alraheem Mohammed
Abstract
This study was carried out during the growing season of 2018 to investigate the possibility of propagating (Cordia myxa L.) by using two types of wood cutting (hardwood and semi-hardwood), the effect of wounding (with or without wounding) and three Conc. of IBA (0, 3000 and 8000 mg.kg-1), In (Randomized Complete Block Design) RCBD. The results indicated that using hardwood stem cuttings was better than semi-hardwood cuttings, Although there was no significant difference between both kinds in most studied characteristics, except the number of leaves (6.80, 2.71) and Length of new shoots (18.58, 7.39) cm respectively. The differences between Wounding and non-wounding treatments didn't affect significantly in most studied characteristics except in rooting percentage which was 28.89% and 15.56% respectively. Also, using both Conc. of IBA at (3000 and 8000 mg.kg-1) didn't affect significantly in most of the studied characteristics except rooting percentage which gave (31.67 and 25.00)%, as compared with control treatment (10%).
