The use of rootstocks originated from sexual propagation results in serious problems for peach culture, being vegetative propagation an important alternative to minimize these problems partially. Among vegetative propagation methods, the use of mini-cuttings constitutes an innovation against the conventional mini-cutting method, which, in some species, have promoted an increase in productivity, uniformity and rooting percentage. Thus, the objective of the present work was to evaluate the viability of Japanese apricot propagation through herbaceous mini-cuttings, by testing different concentrations of IBA (0, 1.000, 2.000 e 3.000 mg.L-1) and types of mini-cuttings (apical, median and basal), in a completely randomized design with four replications. Prepared with two buds and a leaf cut in half, with two lesions on the basis, they were immersed in IBA solution, for 10 seconds, and placed in transparent, articulated plastic packages with vermiculite growing medium. Next, they were placed in a greenhouse under controlled temperature. Sixty days after installation, the percentage of rooted mini-cuttings, number and length of the three largest roots were evaluated. During rooting, the apical, median and basal mini-cuttings showed higher percentage using 1.000 mg.L-1 of IBA.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different types of cuttings and indolebutyric acid (IBA) concentration on the vegetative propagation of Lippia insignis , L. lasiocalycina , and L. thymoides . The experiment was conducted in a 2×5 factorial table, by using 2 types of cuttings (apical and medial) and 5 IBA concentrations (0, 250, 500, 750, and 1000mg·L-1) in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD), with 4 replications and 10 cuttings per plot. For the propagation of L. insignis , apical cuttings are the most suitable, whereas for L. thymoides and L. lasiocalycina species, both apical and medial cuttings may be used. The application of IBA is not necessary for propagation by cutting of the three species of Lippia.

Cestrum corymbosum é um arbusto ornamental nativo do Brasil. A pesquisa visou estudar sua propagação sexuada e vegetativa, avaliando a germinação e o crescimento e testando o efeito do tamanho das estacas e do ácido indolbutírico (AIB) no seu enraizamento e desenvolvimento. Para avaliar a germinação, foram utilizadas seis repetições de 100 sementes. Em seguida, 200 plântulas foram transferidas para embalagens individuais mantidas em canteiro. O experimento de propagação vegetativa, com delineamento inteiramente casualizado em arranjo fatorial 3 x 2, constituiu-se na combinação de três concentrações de AIB (0, 1000 e 2000 mg.L-1) e dois tamanhos de estacas (8 e 15 cm). As estacas foram plantadas em substrato comercial Plantmax HA®. No experimento de propagação sexuada, verificou-se elevada germinação (92%), assim como alta taxa de sobrevivência após repicagem para recipientes individuais (99,5%). Para o experimento de propagação vegetativa, foi detectada influência significativa do tamanho das estacas em relação à sobrevivência, enraizamento (P < 0,01) e número de folhas (P < 0,05). Estacas de 8 cm apresentaram melhor sobrevivência (93,3%) e enraizamento (91,3%). A aplicação de concentrações de AIB não resultou em diferenças significativas (P < 0,01), demonstrando não ser necessária para o enraizamento dessa espécie.Palavras-chave: Germinação; enraizamento; ácido indolbutírico; espécie nativa; Solanaceae.AbstractPropagation of Cestrum corymbosum by seeds and cuttings.

In the search for more efficient techniques for the propagation of peach cuttings, this study aimed to evaluate the rooting of hardwood cuttings of peach rootstock genotypes under different indolebutyric acid (IBA) concentrations. In the winter of 2016, the basal end of cuttings of genotypes 1701-1, 1701-2, 102-1, 102-2, 202-1 and 'Okinawa' were dipped into solutions with five concentrations of IBA (0, 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000 mg mg L-1) for 5 seconds. The cuttings were then placed in sand in plastic trays and kept in a mist chamber. The experiment was arranged in a 6x5 factorial, completely randomized design, with 5 replications, and each plot consisted of eight cuttings. After 59 days, the variables related to rooting and root quality were evaluated. Genotypes 102-1 and 202-1 showed high adventitious rooting potential in hardwood cuttings, with 76.8 and 66.5% of rooting, respectively. The concentration of 2000 mg.L-1 of IBA acid can be recommended for the treatment of hardwood cuttings of the tested rootstocks for propagation in the winter.

ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of six indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) concentrations and three immersion times in IAA solutions on the vegetative propagation of Spondias dulcis and Spondias tuberosa by stem cuttings. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, using a completely randomized design, with a 6×3 factorial arrangement consisting of six indole-3-acetic acid concentrations (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 g L-1) and three immersion times (8, 16, and 24 seconds), with ten cuttings of S. dulcis and S. tuberosa per plot, and three replications. Percentage of surviving cuttings, and percentage of rooted cuttings, number of leaf buds, number of roots per cutting, root length, and total fresh weight were evaluated at 180 days after planting. Data were subjected to analysis of variance by the F test and to regression analysis. Vegetative propagation from woody cuttings of S. dulcis is not viable to produce seedlings, thus, new studies on this technique for this species are needed. Vegetative propagation from woody cuttings of S. tuberosa is satisfactory, but with low efficiency for improvement and emergence of new shoots and roots; it is more effective when using a concentration of 10 g L-1 of indole-3-acetic acid and immersion time in the solution of 16 seconds.

Green mustard is one type of vegetable that is easily cultivated and has good prospects to increase farmers' income and community nutrition. Growing media is a material that is useful as a place to stand upright seedlings, to develop seedling roots, to store water, gas, and nutrients needed for seedling growth. The purpose of this study is a). to determine the effect of using a combination of cocopeat and charcoal as a medium for planting mustard greens, b). to get the best dosage of the composition of the growing medium on the growth of mustard greens. The study was conducted in a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 6 replications. The data were analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and further tested with the Least Significant Difference test (LSD) = 5%. The results showed that the use of cocopeat growing media and charcoal influenced germination and vigor index. Cocopeat and charcoal have a significant effect on fresh and dry weight and chlorophyll content of mustard greens. The mixture of cocopeat growing media and charcoal on P1 did not affect the growth of green mustard on the dry weight. Fresh weight gave a significant effect on K1 and P1 was also significantly different from P2 and P3.
