Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Sucrose applied with IBA improved rooting percentage, adventitious root number and root length of olive cuttings.
- Intervention effect IBA improved rooting of easy-to-root and moderate-rooting olive cultivars.
- Intervention effect IBA did not stimulate root formation in hard-to-root olive cultivars.
- Observation Photosynthesis in rooting olive cuttings was very low.
- Mechanism Starch appears to be the major source of carbohydrates during rooting of olive cuttings.
- Intervention effect IBA increased the rate of amyloplast disappearance in rooting olive cuttings.
- Observation Amyloplast levels decline during rooting of olive cuttings.
- Mechanism Photosynthesis of fully-expanded leaves can supply the carbohydrates needed by rooted olive plants.
- Association Carbohydrate supply may not be enough to keep rooted olive plants alive when top growth is reduced in IBA-treated cuttings.
- Mechanism Carbohydrates have an important role in rooting and improve the stimulatory effect of IBA.
- Mechanism During adventitious root formation the endogenous carbohydrate pool is the main source of carbohydrates.
- Mechanism In young rooted olive plants the main source of carbohydrates comes directly from photosynthesis.
