Effect of media and PGR on rooting and survival of air layered pomegranate plants (Punica Granatum L)

Abstract

The present study entitled “Effect of Media and Growth Regulators on rooting and survival of air layered Pomegranate Plants (Punica granatum L)” was conducted during the year 2019-20 at School of Agricultural Sciences, G. H. Raisoni University, Dhoda Borgaon, Saikheda. Dist. Chhindwara, M. P. The material was sown in Completely Randomized Design with three replications and 7 treatments. The treatments were Soil (control) (Black soil), Soil + IBA 2000 ppm, Soil + NAA 2000 ppm, Coco peat + IBA 1000ppm, Coco peat + NAA 1000ppm, Saw dust + IBA 1000ppm and Saw dust + NAA 1000ppm. The result indicated that the Coco peat with IBA 1000 ppm was best combination giving the best rooting, survival and was economical too.
