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).
Jasminum sambac, or Arabian jasmine is one of the most important
Jasminum species in perfume industry. It is an ornamental evergreen erect
shrub. Flowering date starts from the early May till the end of October. Syrian
climate is very suitable for
the growth and the flowering of the shrub, therefore
the study was carried aut to investigate the effect of some major factors on
rooting of semi-hard wood cuttings.
