| Description |
Allspice (Pimenta dioica (L.) Merr.) is a hard to root hardwood species indigenous to West Indies. Different methods of vegetative propagation namely cuttings, air layering, approach grafting and stooling were attempted.The effectiveness of various auxins and influence of season on rooting of cuttings and air layers has also been studied in the present investigation. All the propagation methods namely cuttings, air layering, approach grafting and stooling were successful in allspice with a maximum of 64.4, 73.3, 80 and 85% respectively. A combination of IBA and NAA at 2500 ppm prepared in charcoal was effective for allspice rooting. |
