The experiment was carried out at the
Agriculture research field, Patuakhali Science and Technology University. Data
on rooting of Wax Jambu were collected after 5 weeks of setting the cuttings
inside the propagator. This research work was describes the scope of clonal
propagation of Jamrul (Syzygium samarangense) by stem cutting. It was laid out
completely randomized block design (RCBD) with 4 replications. The treatments
were different concentrations of IBA (Indole 3-Butyric Acid) solution as T0 (0%
IBA or Control), T1 (0.2% IBA), T2 (0.4% IBA) and T3 (0.8% IBA). Cuttings were
treated with IBA and placed inside the non-mist propagation system. The rooting
ability of cuttings was significantly influenced by the application of IBA. The
highest rooting percentage (85.75) and root diameter (1.53) were obtained from
the cuttings treated with 0.4% IBA solution followed by 0.2% IBA. Maximum root
number (21.6) was obtained from the cuttings treated with 0.4% IBA solution
followed by 0.8% IBA. The longest root length (14.07 cm) was recorded with 0.4%
IBA followed by 0.2% IBA (8.65 cm). Rooted cuttings were transplanted in the
polythene bags filled with soil and cow dung mixed at the ratio of 3:1 (by
volume) for further growth and steckling production. The objective of the
present investigation was to evaluate rooting ability from the cutting of small
leafy branch with or without rooting hormone IBA in low cost farmers friendly
non-mist propagator and clone good quality syzygium samarangense species and
propagate through stem cutting. As a Results revealed that Syzygium
samarangense was highly amenable for clonal propagation by stem cuttings and
treatment of leafy stem cuttings with 0.4% IBA is recommended considering
performance in all studied and vegetative propagation through stem cutting can
be a better and helpful method of plant. So clonal propagation technique,
increase the yield and quality fruit.
