THE EFFECT OF THE PLANT GROWTH REGULATOR KORNEVIN ON THE ROOTABILITY OF PEAR VARIETIES AND FORMS IN CONDITIONS OF ARTIFICIAL FOG

Abstract

Pear is a seed crop that grows and is consumed all over the world, grows on trees and is harvested in the Northern Hemisphere from late summer to October. Plant growth regulators are such chemicals that are capable of various green and lignified cuttings to increase the root system, they are also able to increase yields. Kornevin is an effective plant growth regulator (phytohormone). It is a biological product that stimulates root formation. The drug has a mild effect, is not phytotoxic, eliminates overdoses. It has a long-lasting prolonged effect. Green pear cuttings K-1, K-2, OHF 333, Piro II had the greatest rootability when using the plant growth regulator kornevin (30.0 mg/l) (from 85.0 to 87.7%). Without the use of plant growth regulators, the forms K-1, K-2, OHF 333, Piro II had high rooting rates of green pear cuttings (from 70.5 to 75.9%). The highest growth height when using the plant growth regulator kornevin (30.0 mg/l) was possessed by the rootstock forms of the Caucasian pear, 4-26, 4-39, K-1, K-2, OHF 333, Piro II, this indicator varied from 12.5 to 14.0 cm. The largest diameter of the conditional root neck (from 1.3 to 1.6 cm) had the forms of pears Caucasian, 4-26, 4-39, K-1, K-2, OHF 333, Piro II and varieties ‘Pervomayskaya’, ‘Yakovlevskaya’, ‘Avgustovskaya Rosa’, ‘Irista’, ‘Chudesnitsa’, ‘Fevral'skiy Suvenir’. The largest number of roots (from 7.5 to 8.5 pcs.) were demonstrated by the forms of the Caucasian pear, 4-26, 4-39, K-1, K-2, OHF 333, Piro II. The largest root length (from 9.0 to 9.8 cm) was possessed by the rootstocks of the Caucasian pear, 4-26, 4-39, K-1, K-2, OHF 333, Piro II and varieties ‘Nika’, ‘Avgustovskaya Rosa’, ‘Irista’, ‘Fevral'skiy Suvenir’. Without the use of plant growth regulators, the largest plant height (from 10.0 to 12.0 cm) was possessed by the forms of Caucasian pear, 4-26, 4-39, K-1, K-2, OHF 333, Piro II. The largest number of roots (from 5.0 to 6.6 pcs.) had pear shapes 4-39, K-2, OHF 333, Piro II and varieties ‘Svetlyanka (k)’, ‘Nika’, ‘Pervomayskaya’. The largest root length without the use of plant growth regulators was characterized by the forms of the Caucasian pear, 4-26, 4-39, K-1, K-2, OHF 333, Piro II and varieties ‘Nika’, ‘Fevral'skiy Suvenir’, this indicator varied from 7.0 to 7.8 cm.
