Semi-wooden cuttings of two - jujuba cultivars were vegetitirely propagated
under greenhouse conditions, by using different concentrations of Indole
butyric acid (IBA), at Hanadi Research Station, Lattakia.
The rooting percentage reached 71.3% aft
er two months for the Ziziphus
jujube mill, and 83.3% for the Ziziphus jujube tayan tsizao, when they were
treated with 4000 mg/L of (IBA) for five seconds while the rooting percentage
was zero for the non-treated cuttings (Control) .
This study was carried out on three rootstocks of Crataegus monogyna Jacq.
With one seed containing fruit C.oxycantha L. with three seeds as well as C.
azaraolus Borkh, to identify the best method of Crataegus propagation.
The hardwood cuttings of
C.azarolus Borkh rooted in a IBA solution (4ooo
ppm)showed the highest rooting percentage 20% when grown in sand as well as
peat moss containing fermented arganic manure media.
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.
