Abstract:
Present investigation entitled “Effects of different plant growth regulators on rooting of hardwood cuttings of pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) under shade net condition” was carried out under shade net condition in Instructional and Research Farm Bharregaon under work in Pt. K.L. Shukla College of Horticulture and Research Station, Rajnandgaon, (C.G.)2020-21 The experiment comprises of eleven treatments consisting of five treatments of IBA and five treatments NAA one control that is T₀(Control), T₁(IBA500ppm), T₂ (IBA1000ppm), T₃(IBA1500ppm), T₄(IBA2000ppm), T₅(IBA2500ppm) and T₆ (NAA500ppm), T₇(NAA1000ppm), T₈-(NAA1500ppm), T₉-(NAA2000ppm), T₁₀-(NAA2500ppm), in case of the with a replicated three in a complete randomized design (CRD). The overall best performance was observed in different concentration of PGR T5 for rooting and survival percentage. Number of roots per cutting (46.86), Length of roots (29.92 cm), Diameter of roots (1.44mm), Fresh weight of root (1.35 gm), Dry weight of root (0.91 gm), Survival percentage (80.00%).
