Title

Daniel G. Krueger; Bert T. Swanson HortScience 1992. doi:10.21273/hortsci.27.6.607f
Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Untreated, unclipped acorns formed one taproot and 3-6 laterals.
- Intervention effect K-IBA without clipping yielded one taproot and 5-12 laterals.
- Observation The fourth low K-IBA and clipping combination yielded 6-12 taproots and 1-2 laterals.
- Intervention effect High K-IBA concentrations clipped radicles chemically, producing root systems like hand clipping.
- Intervention effect Stem height was unaffected by treatment.
- Intervention effect Radicle clipping may increase stem caliper.
- Intervention effect K-IBA treatment may reduce root dry weight.
