TY - GEN T1 - A method for vegetative propagation of Dryobalanops lanceolata (Dipterocarpaceae) by cuttings A1 - Moura-Costa, P. H. LA - English YR - 2018 UL - http://discoverylib.upm.edu.my/discovery/Record/oai:http:--agris.upm.edu.my:0-14149 AB - Two-node cuttings were prepared from the apices of juvenile seedlings of D. lanceolata. Leaves were trimmed reducing leaf area to approximately 30 cm- and the basal end of each cutting was treated with a fungicide solution (0.1 % w/v Benlate) followed by 3 % NAA powder. Cuttings were rooted in a closed chamber mist propagator. After roots formed, cuttings were potted in 7 X 21 cm polybags and weaned for two weeks in high humidity chambers. Percentage rooting after 12 weeks was 80 %. Mortality in the weaning-off stage was around 6 %.
