Title Of Article :
Effect of cutting time and IBA application on rooting of edible cherry laurel(Prunus laurocerasus cv. Kiraz ) cuttings
Abstract :
Cherry laurel known as “karayemiş”, “laz cherry” or “taflan”, is a popular evergreen racemes fruit inTurkey and some other Caucasus countries. In this study, cherry laurel variety ‘Kiraz’ was propagated with hardwood, semi-hardwood and softwood cuttings with half leaf and effect of IBA application onrooting ability was determined. Cuttings with different lignification phase were collected from October,December, February (hardwood cuttings), May (softwood cuttings) and June (semi-hardwood cuttings) between 15th to 20th days and subjected to 0, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 ppm Indolebutryicacid (IBA).Cuttings were planted in bottom heated trays with perlite and over misting under greenhouse conditions. The percentages of rooting (100%), rootling (100%) and mortality (100%) were the highest at July’ssemi-hardwood cuttings while rooting degree was the highest at December hardwood cuttings (7.72). 100ppm IBA concentration gave the highest ratios of rooting (96.44%), first grade rootling (90.22%) andmortality rate (84.89%). These results suggest that cherry laurel varieties could be easily propagatedeasily by July’s semi hardwood cuttings subjected to 100 ppm IBA in perlite has bottom heating under greenhouse conditions with misting.
