STUDIES ON THE PROPAGATION BY CUTTINGS OF SOME BROADLEAVED
TREE SPECIES IN TURKEY
Mustafa KÚzmaz1
An experiment was carried out on the propagation of six tree
species (sessile oak, common oak, turkey oak, valona oak, Hungarian lime and Caucasian ash) using four IBA solution
levels (0%, 0-5%, 1% and 2%) in sand plus perlite (1:1).
The experiment was designed to test the best solution level of indole butyric acid in the rooting
of each species. Using the results of this experiment, a second experiment was carried out using
eight tree species (black locust, common oak, oriental plane, Caucasian ash, Hungarian
lime, oleaster, ashleaf maple and Turkish sweet gum), three rooting media and the most effective level of auxin
(0-5% IBA). The results of the experiment are detailed in the paper.
Keywords: Cutting, vegetative propagation, softwood cutting, rooting percentage, root
formation, root numbers, broadleaved tree species.
