Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Rooting capacity depended on both rooting phases.
- Observation Both liquid and solid induction media gave very high rooting percentages.
- Intervention effect Increasing induction temperature from 22 to 26 °C raised rooting percentage.
- Intervention effect Activated charcoal affected root number.
- Intervention effect NAA reduced root number and length.
- Mechanism Authors attribute charcoal benefit to NAA adsorption.
