Abstract
SummaryElm clones may be propagated by grafting, but graft incompatibility is a major problem. Rooting by cuttings does not always give satisfactory results. Shoots of elm clones resistant to Dutch Elm Disease (caused by Ophiostoma ulmi Buism.) and with poor rooting ability, were air layered after one of the following five treatments: application of growth regulator mixture; inoculation with Agrobacterium rhizogenes wild type 1855 (A.r. 1855) or Agrobacterium tumefaciens-ORF11 (A.t. ORF11); application of growth regulator mixture and inoculation with A.r. 1855 or A.t. ORF11. Shoots treated only with growth regulators exhibited low percentage of rooting; shoots inoculated with only Agrobacterium strains produced very low percentage of rooting; shoots treated with growth regulator and inoculated with Agrobacterium strains exhibited the best percentage of rooting. The results demonstrated the possibility of rooting of these recalcitrant clones, with clear advantage for the propagation of elm clones with grow...
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Horticultural Science and Biotechnology is an international, peer-reviewed journal, which publishes original research contributions into the production, improvement and utilisation of horticultural crops. It aims to provide scientific knowledge of interest to those engaged in scientific research and the practice of horticulture. The scope of the journal includes studies on fruit and other perennial crops, vegetables and ornamentals grown in temperate or tropical regions and their use in commercial, amenity or urban horticulture. Papers, including reviews, that give new insights into plant and crop growth, yield, quality and response to the environment, are welcome, including those arising from technological innovation and developments in crop genome sequencing and other biotechnological advances.
