Environmental, Physiological and Chemical Controls of Adventitious
Rooting in Cuttings provides a review of the environmental,
physiological and chemical controls of adventitious rooting in
cuttings obtained from plants. In plants, adventitious roots, which
are highly useful for vegetative propagation (or clonal
propagation) are produced mainly from leaves, hypocotyls, stems or
shoots. Vegetative propagation may occur naturally by using
propagules such as roots, underground and aerial stems, leaves,
buds and bulbils. It may also be done artificially through
regenerative organs (rhizomes, bulbs, and corms) and by utilizing
specialized methods, like cutting, grafting and layering. This book
covers the latest tactics surrounding these processes. As a
plethora of factors affect the adventitious rooting of cuttings,
adding to the complexity of the phenomenon. The main factors which
control adventitious root formation are types of cuttings, presence
of leaf area on cuttings, types of hormones and their
concentration, duration of hormonal treatment (quick dip, long
soak, dry dip, spray dip, or total immerse method), maturation
(juvenile or mature), genotype, explant position, and more, all of
which are discussed here.
