“…Regarding the rooting enhancers, although IBA showed high rooting rates throughout, in many cases, similar rooting rates with no differences in the rooting attributes were measured with other rooting enhancers such as aloe vera, coconut water and rooting gel. Similar results were obtained by Shidiki et al [29] who experimented on Vitex diversifolia and Cordia milleneii and found equal performance among IBA, aloe vera and coconut water on the rooting of cuttings. This may stem from the fact that coconut water is a composition of numerous nutrients; is considered a natural anti-inflammatory and contains naturally occurring hormones such as cytokinins, and can thus act as an alternative rooting promoter [33,34].…”

“…The same holds true for the asexual propagation of native plant material for domestication purposes [26,27], including R. canina [13,28]. The use of alternative rooting enhancers to the conventionally used IBA during propagation is a subject that has been given research attention recently [29,30], with encouraging evidence for small tree species like Cornus spp. and the Rosa sp.…”

“…[31,32]. Indicative examples are coconut water, which includes crucial phytohormones that support the plant's maintenance and development [33], along with various rooting gels [29]. Coconut water is a very versatile substance that, in terms of the current study, contains natural phytohormones of most known groups, including the natural auxin indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) [34].…”

The current study aimed to enhance the sustainable utilization framework of the underutilized Greek native Rosa canina L. (rosehip) germplasm as a potential novel crop that can deliver high-quality products with minimum environmental impact. The first part of the work includes asexual propagation trials on cuttings of two Greek R. canina genotypes, assessing the potential of various alternative rooting enhancers to the conventionally used indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), as affected by rooting substrate and cutting type. The propagation results showed commercially acceptable (>50%) rooting rates for 2500 ppm IBA, coconut water, rooting gel and aloe vera treatments and similar rooting attributes of root number and length, providing evidence for the feasibility of using alternative rooting enhancers. The second part of the work presents the results of an ongoing ex situ cultivation trial assessing the potential of a diversified organic fertilization regime against conventional fertilization on fruit size and yield, coupled with macro- and micro-nutrient concentration, in the leaves of four Greek R. canina genotypes. The results showed a genotype-specific response in rosehip fruit size and yield to fertilization, with the organic regime showing comparable results to the conventional fertilization. In addition, diverse patterns, depending on the element, of macro- and micro-nutrient content were measured in the leaves in both fertilization regimes, which were, however, genotype-dependent. Overall, the current study reports for the first time the potential of alternative rooting enhancers for commercial R. canina propagation coupled with the application of organic fertilization as a means of establishing a diversified cultivation protocol for underutilized R. canina germplasm. The current results can be employed to further facilitate a value chain creation for Greek rosehips as a raw material for use in the agro-alimentary and medicinal–cosmetic sectors.

“…According to Mirihagalla and Fernando (2020), root length, the number of roots and root ''vigour'' of the semi-hardwood cuttings of Citrus aurantifolia treated commercial PRG (Rapid root®, 0.3% Indole 3-butyric acid; IBA) and dipped cuttings ends in fresh Aloe vera gel for two and five minutes were not significantly different. Shidiki et al (2019) showed that IBA, Aleo vera gel, and coconut water showed comparable influence on root initiation while number of primary roots was highest in Aloe vera gel treatment. They were dipped in 2 minutes in each treatment.…”

Ex-situ conservation techniques are used effectively to preserve many threatened plant species including Ceylon gooseberry from imminent extinction. The present study was conducted to evaluate an integrated conservation approach which includes seed treatments, seedling establishment and rooting of stem cuttings of Ceylon gooseberry (Dovyalis hebecarpa). Three experiments were set up at the Faculty of Agriculture University of Ruhuna from September 2020 to January 2021. Six seed treatments (seed clipping, cold water soak, hot water treatment, rubbing with fine sand, wood ash, and sandpaper) were used to induce germination of seeds. Germination percentage and germination time were significantly different among treatments. The highest final germination percentage (53%) was recorded when seeds were clipped. The best potting mixture for the seedling growth was observed as topsoil: sand: coir-dust: compost, 1:1:1:2 ratio having 60% seedling survival rate. The commercially available PGR and Aloe vera gel were used to induce rooting in semi-hardwood cuttings. Total root length, number of roots, germination percentage, root and shoot vigour were significantly different among treatments. Ceylon gooseberry seedlings and rooted cuttings could be produced in large scale and establish in the field by adopting the propagation protocol developed in the present study.

“…En la actualidad, muchos agricultores utilizan gel de sábila para inducir el enraizamiento en esquejes de tallo, dado que el extracto en gel contiene hormonas vegetales como auxinas y giberelinas, y promotores del crecimiento de las raíces de las plantas como el ácido salicílico. Se ha reportado el uso de gel de sábila como enraizante eficiente en la propagación asexual de especies como Citrus aurantifolia, Syzygium jambos (Mirihagalla & Fernando, 2020), Vitex diversifolia (Shidiki et al, 2019), Ficus benjamina (Alvarado-Aguayo & Munzón-Quintana, 2020), Vitis vinifera (Uddin et al, 2020), entre otras. Para P. peruviana no se presentan investigaciones que usen dicho tratamiento o alguno relacionado con enraizantes naturales.…”

La uchuva es una planta de gran valor nutricional y medicinal, y es la fruta exótica más importante en las exportaciones colombianas. Normalmente es reproducida sexualmente, no obstante, su reproducción por medio de esquejes reduce su periodo vegetativo alrededor de un mes. Para su propagación asexual usualmente se emplean diferentes reguladores de crecimiento (PGRs). El reemplazo de los PGR sintéticos por alternativas naturales se está volviendo habitual debido al alto costo de los PGR sintéticos y al riesgo de toxicidad en plantas, humanos y animales debido a la aplicación de sobredosis. Por esto, el objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar los efectos de la aplicación de un enraizante sintético y uno natural en la propagación asexual de Physalis peruviana L. Para esto se emplearon esquejes de 11 cm de longitud de plantas adultas del ecotipo Colombia y se realizó un diseño completamente al azar (DCA) con tres tratamientos (Aloe vera L., ANA 0,4 % y control sin hormona) y tres réplicas. Establecidos los esquejes de uchuva en invernadero se evaluó el porcentaje de sobrevivencia, porcentaje de enraizamiento, altura del esqueje y longitud de la raíz. El porcentaje de sobrevivencia y de enraizamiento fue de 100 % para todos los tratamientos debido a los niveles de reserva del material vegetal. La aplicación de ANA 0,4 % presentó mejores resultados que los demás tratamientos en la longitud de raíz. Para la altura del esqueje no hubo diferencias significativas entre el enraizante natural y el sintético. Además, se obtuvo enraizamiento para la totalidad de los esquejes, aun sin el uso de la hormona.
