The study showed that IAA treated cuttings were rooted earlier and bud
development was delayed. On the other hand, IAA treatment increased rooting
percentage and reduced the percentage of bud development. Increasing
NaCl salinity to ٠,١ M decrease
d the rooting ability in cuttings, while the
use of IAA could mitigate the adverse effect of salinity. The best results of
rooting were obtained in treatment of (٠,٠٥ M).
