STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE ROOTING AND ACCLIMATIZATION OF CORK OAK

Acta Horticulturae, 2003
In this work the inclusion of 2 mg l -1 of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) in the rooting medium produced 78% rooting. The rooting percentage was improved to 95% by basal immersion of shoots in 0.5 g l -1 IBA for 2 min. With this method high number of long and vigorous roots developed during the second week after IBA treatment.
