UNEXPECTED ROOTING IN SHOOT-TIP CUTTINGS OF PONYTAIL PALM (BEAUCARNEA RECURVATA)
Journal Title: Malaysian Journal of Sustainable Agriculture (MJSA) - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Cutting has mentioned one of Beaucarnea’s propagation methodsin some scientific references, but it is hard-to-root plant. This experiment carried out to try rooting of shoot cutting of this species. For this purpose, Ponytail palm tip shoot cuttings were treated by 4 concentrations of Indole butyric acid (IBA) including: 0, 1000, 2000 and 4000 mg/l. The rooted cutting of Beaucarnea recurvata was treated by 4000 mg/l IBA.
