TL;DR: Vegetative propagation is the bridge between plant improvement and commercial exploitation of clonally produced plants and rapid rooting minimizes cutting exposure to adverse environments and to the diseases to which unrooted cuttings are prone.
Abstract: Vegetative propagation is the bridge between plant improvement and commercial exploitation of clonally produced plants. The ease and extent of commercialization is determined largely by readiness to root from cuttings, and ready-rooting has subsequent benefits for “weaning,” “hardening,” rapid growth and batch uniformity. These benefits do not apply when propagation is difficult and cuttings root in low numbers over a protracted period. Speed of adventitious rooting is important because rapid rooting minimizes cutting exposure to adverse environments and to the diseases to which unrooted cuttings are prone.

TL;DR: The results indicate that C.annii is a long day plant, requiring only 30 days of 21/18 (day/night temperature) and long day (LD) treatments to accelerate flowering, suggesting that Correa may not require high levels of nutrition during it’s culture or to induce flowering.
Abstract: Australian natives Correa ‘Mannii’ and C. reflexa (Rutaceae) have been considered suitable as a flowering potted plant. However, comprehensive information on the most effective propagation method, nutrition management, and their impact on propagation and flowering is unavailable. The influence of temperature and photoperiod treatments to control flowering have not been determined. This study was initiated to propagate Correa ‘Mannii’ by the rooting of cuttings and evaluate the effects of rooting hormone treatment, and single node location on the shoot. Treatment methods such as dipping vs. spray application of the rooting hormone were evaluated. The growth and flowering responses of C. ‘Mannii’ and C. reflexa as they may be influenced by fertilizer treatments, the interaction of photoperiod, temperature were also evaluated. The rooting of cuttings in C. ‘Mannii’ was promoted by spraying stock plants with IBA-K and applying 1 g per pot of slow release fertilizer (SRL). Correa does not require high levels of nitrogen (N), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), or several other macro- and micro-elements for normal growth, suggesting that Correa may not require high levels of nutrition during it’s culture or to induce flowering. The total numbers of flowers and shoots with flowers were not affected when plants received 2 g per pot of SRL. Correa ‘Mannii’ flowered freely as compared to C. reflexa which indicates that there is significant genetic variation with respect to environmental and nutritional factors affacting flowering. Our results indicate that C. ‘Mannii’ is a long day plant, requiring only 30 days of 21/18 (day/night temperature) and long day (LD) treatments to accelerate flowering.

TL;DR: Keputusan-keputusan kepekatan cycocel dari 2500 bsj nampaknya menghalang pembentukan akar pada keratan-keratan gardenia, while Ancymidol mengeluarkan bilangan akar luarbiasa yang tinggi pada Keratan Gardenia.
Abstract: Alar dan Ancymidol mengeluarkan bilangan akar luarbiasa yang tinggi pada keratan gardenia, tetapi tidak' pada keratan duranta dan. bougainville. Keputusan-keputusan yang bermakna telah diperolehi dengan kepekatan 2500 bsj bag! Alar dan 200 bsj bagi Ancymidol. Akar-akar keratan gardenia dengan rawatan Amcymidol didapati lebih banyak bersabut dan halus, manakala akar-akar dari keratan baugainville lebih besar saiznya. Kepekatan cycocel dari 2500 bsj nampaknya menghalang pembentukan akar pada keratan-keratan gardenia.
