Abstract
The number of adventitious roots developing on mung bean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] seedling stem cuttings varied from cutting to cutting, but individual seed weight, fresh weight of the cutting, hypocotyl length or leaf area did not affect rooting. Generally all cuttings rooted, when the log transformation stabilized the variance in ‘roots per cutting’. Trimming the hypocotyl to a standard length at setting either had little effect on the coefficient of variation of root counts (in robust cuttings) or increased it (in spindly cuttings). Spacings which gave areas per plant of about 1 cm2 (parent plants) and 3 cm2 (cuttings) did not result in an increase in variation, even though leaf area per plant was about 10 cm2. Rooting was increased by temporary dehydration after severance but was not affected by the depth of water in which the cutting bases were placed. Alhoewel die aantal adventiewe wortels van Vigna radiata (L.) steggies gevarieer het, het die individuele saadmassa, varsmassa van die steggie, hipokotiellengte of blaaroppervlak nie die beworteling beïnvloed nie. Oor die algemeen het al die steggies wortels gevorm nadat die logtransformering die variasie in die ’wortels per steggie’ gestabiliseer het. Die gebruik om die hipokotiel op 'n standaardlengte af te sny, het min invloed op die variabiliteitskoëffisiënt van stewige steggies gehad maar het die variabiliteitskoëffisiënt van tenger steggies verhoog. Verskillende spasiëring van steggies het nie die variabiliteit beïnvloed nie. Beworteling is verhoog deur tydelike uitdroging na afsnyding, maar is nie beïnvloed deur die diepte van die water waarin die beworteling plaasgevind het nie.
