Abstract

The rooting response of juvenile shoot cuttings (mononodal cuttings) of Terminalia chebula was studied to develop a mass propagation protocol for cloning the desired genotypes. The effect of rooting hormones was observed for five concentrations (1000, 2000, 3000, 4000 and 5000 ppm) of IBA, IAA and NAA. The maximum rooting response was observed in case of IBA 4000 ppm (55%) treated cuttings followed by IBA and IAA 3000 ppm (35%) treatments. Only 25 per cent rooting was observed in case of cuttings without treatment (control). The maximum main root length was observed in IBA 1000 and IBA 4000 (8.22 cm) followed by NAA 4000 and NAA 5000.
