- Abstract
Aims: Berberis thunbergii 'Atropurpurea' cuttings was aimed to determine the rooting conditions of in different rooting mediums in the study. Methods and Results: In this study, perlite, cocopite, pumice, rockwool, vermiculite and peat were used as rooting medium. The effect of these mediums on the rooting of cuttings was investigated. Cuttings received in January were rooted under misting by being stitched in the casing where different media were used. Several properties such as rooting percentage, rooting status, number of root, root length, callus rate, number of leaf, shoot length, number of shoots and nursery conversion rate were investigated. Conclusions: According to the obtained results, it was seen that the mediums used on rooting rate and root properties were effective. Berberis thunbergii cuttings the highest rooting rate (65%) was obtained in the pomace medium, but rooting did not occur in the peat medium. Significance and Impact of the Study: Although there are studies about effects of different media on rooting cutting of in Berberis thunbergii species in the world, there is limitted number of studies in our country. For this reason, if needed in the ornamental plant sector, it is possible to provide a protocol of propagation with cutting.
