Abstract

The study was conducted on rooting of stem cuttings of J. curcas with different concentrations of IBA solutions under open nursery conditions in quick dip method for 10 seconds during Rainy (July-Sept.) and Winter (Feb.-April) seasons. Application of IBA does not have significant effect on promotion of rooting in Jatropha cuttings. Maximum success was recorded when the basal portion of cuttings were planted in the nursery during winter season without any treatment (IBA).
