Abstract:
The present investigation entitled “Effect of indole butyric acid (IBA) on root growth and survival of pomegranate (Punica granatum) hardwood cuttings” was conducted during October’ 2022 to February’ 2023 at the Department of Horticulture, School of Agricultural Sciences, GH Raisoni University, Saikheda (M.P.) during Rainy Season. The experiment was laid down in Randomized Block Design with three replication and seven treatment including control. The seven treatment of plant growth regulators and control (T1 - Control, T2 - 500 PPM IBA T3- 1000 PPM IBA, T4 - 1500 PPM IBA, T5 - 2000 PPM IBA, T6 - 2500 PPM IBA and T7 - 3000 PPM IBA). Observations of growth characters such as days taken to start sprouting, days taken to 50% sprouting, percentage of success of cutting, length of shoot after 60 days of planting (cm), length of shoot after 80 days of planting (cm), (b) Root characters such as number of roots per cutting, length of roots (cm) to be recorded. The results revealed that the minimum days taken to start sprouting (9.63 days) was found in T7 and T3, days taken to 50% sprouting (17.53 days) treatments - T6, maximum percentage of success of cutting (80.89%) treatment - T7, length of shoot after 60 days of planting (10.99 cm) treatment - T6, length of shoot after 80 days of planting (17.18 cm) treatment T8, Root characters such as number of roots per cutting (11.23) treatment - T6, length of roots (11.89 cm) treatment T7, while the minimum was found under the treatments T1 - Control.
