Abstract

This scientific paper presents the results of experiments on the propagation of vegetatively propagated clone grafts of cherries from green cuttings. In the experiment, the effect of the concentration of indolymic acid (IMK), the time of preparation of green cuttings and the part of the stem from which the green cuttings were obtained, on the growth of vegetatively propagated stems of cherries from green cuttings was studied. The object of study was the weakly growing vegetatively propagated VSL-2 (Krimsky-5) and CAB-6P grafts of cherries. The cuttings were treated with water concentrations of 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 mg/l to determine the optimal concentration of the growth regulating agent - IMK. Rapid acceleration of rhizogenesis processes and high root yield (78-81%) in green cuttings of cherry clone grafts were noted in the variant treated with IMK 80 mg/l water concentration. The rapid and early regeneration processes in green cuttings using the optimal concentration of IMK ensured that their conditional body diameter reached a standard (6-7 mm) size by the time of cutting grafts. In this experimental variant, the amount of plants that can be grafted has reached about 89% of the total number of plants that have taken root.
