Effect of mother plant size on offshoot regeneration in date palm cv. Sayer under field conditions

Abstract

After 10 years in the field, mother plants over 15 kg, produce heavier and more rooted offshoots than smaller plants. The selection of offshoots over 15 kg and 30–40 cm stem diameter produced more rooted offshoots for the next propagation. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
