Ethylene and rooting of mung bean cuttings. The role of auxin induced ethylene synthesis and phase-dependent effects [PDF]
, 2008 We have re-examined the role of ethylene during rooting of mung bean cuttings. Cuttings were treated for 5 days with a low or a high concentration of NAA (naphthaleneacetic acid).
