The increasing interest in<em> Arundo donax,</em> a perennial lignocellulosic species only reproducing by propagation, requires the setup of cheap, simple and reliable techniques. Considering these targets, stem cutting offers considerable advantages. The present investigation aimed to compare: i) plants obtained by different propagation methods (by rhizome and micropropagation mother plants); ii) plants obtained by stem cuttings from basal, central and apical parts of the stem; iii) different planting periods (spring, summer, autumn). The obtained results showed that the number of new shoots from stem buds was: i) higher in the spring and lower in the summer planting period; ii) higher from cuttings obtained by micropropagated than rhizome mother plants, both in spring and summer plantings; iii) decreasing passing from the basal to the apical stem portion; iv) partly unexpressed in the autumn planting period; v) lower from one-year stem cuttings as compared to two-year stem cuttings.

The rooting ability of GF677 peach rootstock by hardwood (H), semihardwood (SH), and softwood (S) stem cuttings collected January, February, May, and November, treated with various IBA concentrations—0, 500, 1000, 2000, and 3000 ppm—was studied. H cuttings collected in January and treated with 2000 ppm IBA caused significant increase in rooting (62%–5%). In addition, the SH cuttings prepared February and treated with 1000 or 2000 ppm IBA gave 42.5%. The May experiment resulted in low rooting percentage where H cuttings treated with 500 ppm IBA gave 10% rooting. In October, SH cuttings with 1000 or 3000 ppm IBA gave the highest rooting percentage (60%), while in November 90% rooting was obtained in H cuttings treated with 3000 ppm. Regardless of type of cutting, IBA at 1000, 2000, or 3000 ppm was better for rooting the GF677 than at 500 ppm. However, irrespective of IBA concentration, H and SH cuttings gave significantly high rooting percentages. On the other hand, best rooting was obtained when the stem cuttings of GF677 (regardless of wood type) were collected in November. Wounding base of the cutting of GF677 improved rooting ability.

Abstract P. nigra (black poplar) is a fast-growing tree utilized for afforestation and as an ornamental in all the temperate areas of the world. It is also utilized in breeding programmes as a parent, because it is compatible with many other Populus species. It is adaptable to many environments and different soil types, exhibits excellent rooting ability of stem cuttings and good resistance to pathogens.

Stem cuttings of two lingonberry varieties, Koralle and Erntekrone, collected and planted in April, May, June and August, were tested for rooting and shoot growth in the presence of Trichoderma viride strain T-6-RC. Strain T-6-RC had a significant effect on increasing the rooting potential of the cuttings regardless of variety or collection date. However, this effect was more evident for Erntekrone, which generally had a poorer rooting ability than Koralle. Significant interactions between collection date, T-6-RC and variety were found for shoot growth and are discussed in the text. Key words: Lingonberry, fungi, propagation, soil micromycetes
