Abstract | ||
The effect of different concentration of MS for medium strength (MS, 1/2MS, 2MS) on rooting ability of apple Malus domestica Borkh MM106 and pear pyrus communis rootstocks were studied, which incubated under 1000 lux light for 16 hr / day with temperature of 25 ±2˚C for 8 weeks. Results showed that 1/2 MS gave higher rooting percentage reached to 70% than 2MS and MS which reached to 40,20 % respectively, Also, results showed that MM106 apple rootstock was significantly superior in number and length of the roots which reached 2.80 root/shoot, 3.4cm respectively, as compared with pear rootstock. While pear rootstock surpass in length of shoots which reached 5.80cm/shoots. | ||
