Abstract
Rooting on 2.5 cm long stem segments of Salix tetrasperma was optimal when cultured in 5.0 mg/I IAA in combination with 1.0 % glucose at 30°C, and in combination with 0.1 % glucose at 15°C. 5-Fluorodeoxyuridine (FUDR), actinomycin-D and cycloheximide all inhibited rooting and the inhibitory effect in each case increased with concentration. 5-Fluorouracil (FU), on the other hand, was ineffective. The results show that auxins probably act as a triggering agent for the synthesis of specific enzyme proteins that are required for the initiation of root primordia at the transcriptional level and that a correct balance of auxin and nutrition which may vary with the environmental conditions, is necessary for optimal rooting.
