L-Arginine Impact On Cherry Rootstock Rooting And Biochemical Characteristics In Tissue Culture, Virginia Sarropoulou, Kortessa Dimassi-Theriou, Ioannis Therios

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

In the present study, the effects of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) separately and simultaneously with L-arginine on the morphogenic and biochemical responses in the cherry rootstocks CAB-6P (Prunus cerasus L.) and Gisela 6 (Prunus cerasus × Prunus canescens) were investigated. In the CAB-6P rootstock, the best root number and root length results were obtained with 2 mg L^{–1} IBA plus 0.5 mg L^{–1} L-arginine and 1 mg L^{–1} IBA plus 1 mg L^{–1} L-arginine, respectively. The rooting percentage was highest (100%) with 2 mg L^{–1} IBA alone or combined with 1 mg L^{–1} L-arginine. In the Gisela 6 explants, 2 mg …
