In order to investigate the morphological reactions of cutting of damask rose to IBA (indole butyric acid) in different times, an experiment was done in a factorial experiment based on RCD and three times with three replications and 10 observations per each replication. In this experiment, the simple effects of IBA, time and their interaction effects were measured against morphological properti...

Lycium chilense, a deciduous perennial shrub, is one of the endangered native species of Patagonia due to sheep overgrazing. Chances of recolonization by seeds are scarce due to the limited density of propagules in the soil and very specific requirements for germination. The objective was to develop an in vitro propagation protocol that would help to perform reestablishment of this species in d...

Vegetative propagation of pear rootstocks using semi hardwood cuttings The objective of this work was to evaluate the technical viability of the vegetative propagation of the pear rootstocks ‘Taiwan Nashi-C’, ‘Taiwan Mamenashi’ (Pyrus calleryana Dcne.) and ‘Seleção IAC-1’ (Pyrus spp.) using semi-hardwood cuttings. The experiment was conducted in a nursery with an intermittent mist system at the...

The poinsettia's species name pulcherrima means "most beautiful" and that it is! Poinsettia's brilliant red floral display held against rich green foliage has made this unlikely species a holiday favorite. Its appealing presentation of the traditional Christmas colors has so endeared poinsettia that it is now second only to the Christmas tree as the most popular holiday plant. Studies have show...

Malus hupehensis is an excellent Malus rootstock species, known for its strong adverse-resistance and apomixes. In the present study, stem cuttings of M. hupehensis were treated with three types of exogenous hormones, including indole acetic acid (IAA), naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), or green growth regulator (GGR). The effects and mechanisms of exogenous hormone treatment and antioxidant enzym...
