Table 3.

Effect of MS salt concentration and IBA on in vitro root induction

Rooting media IBA (mg/l) Number of roots Root length (cm)
½ MS media 0.2 1.75 ± 0.25a 1.85 ± 0.09a
0.5 3.25 ± 0.25b 1.87 ± 0.11a
1.0 6.00 ± 0.40c 2.20 ± 0.18a
¼ MS media 0.2 2.75 ± 0.25ab 2.12 ± 0.11a
0.5 6.25 ± 0.85c 2.80 ± 0.18b
1.0 11.00 ± 0.40d 4.62 ± 0.19c

Parameters have been recorded after 4 weeks of transfer in rooting media. Data are in the form of mean ± SEM, and means followed by the same letter within the columns are not significantly different (P = 0.05) using Duncan’s multiple range test
