Opis

Bougainvillea is propagated by cuttings, layering, and budding. Propagation by cutting is very popular method of multiplication of several ornamental plants. Plant bioregulators has been used extensively for initiation of rooting in cuttings of bougainvillea. Hardwood cuttings showed better growth than softwood cuttings. Profuse rooting and maximum survival in hardwood cuttings were found in Torch Glory cultivar of Bougainvillea. Auxin application enhances the historical features like formation of callus tissue and differentiation of vascular tissues.Cuttings do not root normally in the dry season, however, rejuvenated shoots may still have superior root development probably because of higher food reserves and other rooting co-factors. the seasonal timing, or the period of the year in which cuttings are taken, can play an important role in rooting. This book will be very useful not only for researcher but also for horticulturists, nurseryman, amateur growers, enthusiasts, city and industry planners for planning future research strategies on bougainvillea research. The book will provide valuable data and also be a reference material for future research activities in the area.
