ThesisItem Open Access Effect of rooting hormone with different growing media on sprouting and rooting response of Eucalyptus clones(College of Forestry, Ranichauri Campus, V.C.S.G. Uttarakhand University of Horticulture and Forestry, 2021) Kumar, Gaurav; Bali, R.S.(Dr.)Eucalyptus is an indigenous multipurpose fast-growing tree species and also used across the globe for timbers, poles, fuel woods, gums, oils, pulp and papers. Clonal propagation of the genus Eucalyptus is considered strategic for improving its yield and quality of its products. The present study entitled “Effect of rooting hormone with different growing media on sprouting and rooting response of Eucalyptus clones” is aimed to examine the effect of various IBA concentrations, different growing media and early growth of cuttings on two Eucalyptus clones. The investigation consisted of twenty-four treatments with two clones, three growing media and three concentrations of IBA along with control. The data were analyzed according to the procedure of analysis of variance for three factorial Randomized Block Design. Different parameters; early growth in raised cuttings, sprouting and rooting attributes were investigated with respect to two Eucalyptus clones. Clone C1 (FRI-32) was showed superiority with respect to sprouting percent, number of leaves per cutting, number of roots per cutting, rooting percent, survival percent, shoot length, root length, total plant height at 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 DAP,while the highest sprout length and mortality percent was found in Clone C2 (SPM-23). In growing media, M1 Cocopeat growing media was produced highest sprouting percent, number of leaves per cutting, number of roots per cutting, rooting percent, survival percent, shoot length, root length and total plant height at 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 DAP, while maximum sprout length and mortality percent were observed in M2 Vermicompost and M3 fly ash growing media respectively. In IBA concentrations, the maximum sprouting percent, sprout length, number of leaves per cutting, number of roots per cutting, rooting percent, survival percent, root length, total plant height were recorded at 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 DAP in H2 (3000 ppm) concentrations of IBA, while the H3 (4000 ppm) concentrations of IBA was produced the longest shoot and highest mortality percent was recorded in H1 control (without IBA). The overall study suggested that Clone C1 (FRI-32) showed superiority as compared to Clone C2 (SPM-23). On other hand, M1 Cocopeat growing media and H2 (3000 ppm) concentrations of IBA showed better results in case of Eucalyptus clones.ThesisItem Open Access Effect of Integrated Nutrient Management on growth, yield, fruit quality and orchard soil nutrient status of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L.) cv.
