Abstract

In the present investigation the stem cuttings of G. arborea were treated with 500 and 1000ppm with IBA and NAA, respectively. NAA 1000 ppm treated cutting showed maximum effect on sprouting (41.33 %), rooting (53.58 %), number of roots per cuttings (23.83) and root: shoot ratio (1.98) compare with the other concentrations.
