Type: article
Abstract: The present investigation entitled “Effect of different Rooting Media for Rooting Success and Survivability of Marcottage in Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) C.V. Bhagwa” was conducted at Fruit Research Station, Imalia, Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, J.N.K.V.V., Jabalpur (M.P.) during the year 2018- 2019. The experiment was laid out in Factorial Randomized Block Design with three replications. Among different treatments Soil + Vermicompost + Azospirillum + IBA 5000ppm was most effective in rooting success at DAT 60, 90 (100%, 93.33%) and survivability at DAT 120 (93.33%) followed by the treatment with Soil + VC + Pseudomonas + IBA 5000. This treatment also resulted maximum percentage of rooted layers (97.77%), and rooting and growth parameter number of primary root (16.40), number of secondary root (32.80), length of primary root (14.20 cm), length of secondary root (6.28 cm), longest length of root DAL 45 (15.88 cm), diameter of primary root (4.01 mm), diameter of secondary root 2.20 mm). it may be concluded that Soil + Vermicompost + Azospirillum + IBA 5000ppm can be applied for suitable marcottage in pomegranate at “kaymore plateau and satpura hils’’ agro climatic zone of Madhya Pradesh.
