Creator:: Kumpula, Carol L.
Abstract:: Adventitious root formation can be inhibited in stem cuttings of Pisum sativum L. (pea), an easy-to-root species, if the apical and lateral buds are removed. Application of exogenous auxin to the apical stump can replace the rooting stimulus produced by the buds. Root number was reduced by 50 to 100%...

Creator:: Davis, Tim D.
Abstract:: Many investigators have suggested that current photosynthate supply can limit adventitious root formation on leafy cuttings. Accordingly, studies were undertaken to determine the effects of altering photosynthesis and carbohydrate levels on adventitious root formation by leafy cuttings of a number of different species. Pea cuttings rooted at high CO₂ (1800...

Creator:: Davis, Tim D.
Abstract:: The effects of light incident on leafy cuttings is quite complex because' light influences several factors which may affect root formation. One effect of light is to influence the carbohydrate status of the cutting by influencing photosynthesis. The role of current photosynthate in the rooting of leafy cuttings is uncertain....
