The present crisis has emphasized human dependency on bamboo with quality planting materials. A study focused on the effect of the different concentrations of IBA (0 ppm, 100 ppm, 200 ppm, 300 ppm) on the sprouting and rooting behaviours of 5 bamboo species viz. Dendrocalamus strictus, Bambusa vulgaris, B. nutans, B. tulda and B. bambos found in coastal Odisha in order to get an idea for mass multiplication and biomass production to meet the multifarious demands of bamboo based sector. It was carried out in Split-Plot Design with 3 replications with 5 species of bamboo as main plot factor band different concentrations of IBA as sub- plot factor. |
