“…In addition, it have great effects on plant growth and development, especially leave growth (Table 2). In line with Tchinida et al (2013), the treatment of IBA and NAA on Ricinodendron heudelotti cuttings influenced the growth of leaves, but there were no significantly differences in each level of treatment.…”

Kusmana C, Hidayat T, Istomo, Rusdiana O. 2018. Growth performance of Bruguiera gymnorrhiza derived from cut-propagule seedling. Biodiversitas 19: 208-214. The availability and existence of Bruguiera gymnorrhiza seed sources is getting decreased. This causes the generative reproduction of this plant is limited. The present research was carried out to study the growth performance of B. gymnorrhiza derived from vegetative cut-propagule seedling by employing different type of cut-propagule, the provision of root promoting hormones, and the provision of NPK fertilizer. The research was conducted at the Greenhouse for 6 months using a completely randomized design (CRD) 3x3x2 factorial with five replications. The results showed that B. gymnorrhiza could be propagated by cut-propagule. Seedlings growth which derived from complete propagule apparently had a better performance than those derived from cut-propagule. Roots derived from complete propagule and the bottom part of cut-propagule grow faster than the top part of cut-propagule. Two types of shoot such as shoot existing before planting which was derived from complete propagule and top part of cut-propagule; and shoots existing after planting called as adventitious shoot derived from the bottom part of cut-propagule has been formed. Unfortunately, new complete shoots derived from the bottom part of cut-propagule was not formed. Furthermore, there was no significant effect of root promoting hormone and NPK fertilizer induction on the shoot and root growth of B. gymnorrhiza.

“…In most cases, IBA had better results than IAA. For example, Ghaderi and Jafari (2014) and Tchinda et al (2013) found that IBA was more effective than NAA for rooting and growth of Valeriana officinalis and Ricinodendron heudelotii. In contrast, IAA produced a stout root system in a few plants, such as Agapanthus praecox (Baskaran & Van Staden, 2013), Hoslundia opposite (Prakash & Van Staden, 2007), and Spathoglottis plicata (Hossain & Dey, 2013).…”

Auxin increased adventitious root development in the medicinal plant Andrographis paniculata (Burm. f.) Wall. ex Nees

Andrographis paniculata (Burm. f.) Wall. ex Nees is an economically high‐demand medicinal plant for its traditional uses and overwhelming pharmacological properties. However, the current agricultural production of A. paniculata is insufficient to meet its pharmacological demand. Developing a rapid and efficient propagation technique is crucial to meet its increasing demand. This study assessed the ability of the auxins indole‐3‐butyric acid (IBA) and indole‐3‐acetic acid (IAA) to simulate adventitious root development in the young apical shoot (YAS) and old apical shoot (OAS) cuttings of A. paniculata. This investigation found that 3.0 mM IBA was better for achieving rapid growth (6.33 ± 0.42 d) of adventitious root in YAS cuttings, where the number of roots per cutting was 40 ± 1.29, with an average length of 4.11 ± 0.20 cm (mean ± SE; n = 6). Overall, YAS cuttings were comparatively more efficient to induce adventitious roots compared with OAS cuttings. The rapid regeneration of A. paniculata plantlets using IBA within a short time suggests that this plant can be propagated on a mass scale and that IBA can be used to accelerate production. Further study for evaluating soaking duration on the adventitious rooting in A. paniculata would be worthy.

“…The propagation of Ricinodendron heudelotii and Gnetum spp. through leafy stem cuttings was significantly improved during this third decade by pretreating cuttings with nutrient-based solutions enriched with exogenous auxins and/or honey [369][370][371]. It was observed that exogenous auxins and specifically Indole-butyric acid pretreatment can promote the synthesis and accumulation of phenolic compounds and enzymes needed for root differentiation [372].…”

This paper follows the transition from ethnobotany to a deeper scientific understanding of the food and medicinal properties of African agroforestry tree products as inputs into the start of domestication activities. It progresses on to the integration of these indigenous trees as new crops within diversified farming systems for multiple social, economic and environmental benefits. From its advent in the 1990s, the domestication of indigenous food and non-food tree species has become a global programme with a strong African focus. This review of progress in the third decade is restricted to progress in Africa, where multi-disciplinary research on over 59 species has been reported in 759 research papers in 318 science publications by scientists from over 833 research teams in 70 countries around the world (532 in Africa). The review spans 23 research topics presenting the recent research literature for tree species of high priority across the continent, as well as that in each of the four main ecological regions: the humid zone of West and Central Africa; the Sahel and North Africa; the East African highlands and drylands; and the woody savannas of Southern Africa. The main areas of growth have been the nutritional/medicinal value of non-timber forest products; the evaluation of the state of natural resources and their importance to local people; and the characterization of useful traits. However, the testing of putative cultivars; the implementation of participatory principles; the protection of traditional knowledge and intellectual property rights; and the selection of elite trees and ideotypes remain under-researched. To the probable detriment of the upscaling and impact in tropical agriculture, there has been, at the international level, a move away from decentralized, community-based tree domestication towards a laboratory-based, centralized approach. However, the rapid uptake of research by university departments and national agricultural research centres in Africa indicates a recognition of the importance of the indigenous crops for both the livelihoods of rural communities and the revitalization and enhanced outputs from agriculture in Africa, especially in West Africa. Thus, on a continental scale, there has been an uptake of research with policy relevance for the integration of indigenous trees in agroecosystems and their importance for the attainment of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. To progress this in the fourth decade, there will need to be a dedicated Centre in Africa to test and develop cultivars of indigenous crops. Finally, this review underpins a holistic approach to mitigating climate change, as well as other big global issues such as hunger, poverty and loss of wildlife habitat by reaping the benefits, or ‘profits’, from investment in the five forms of Capital, described as ‘land maxing’. However, policy and decision makers are not yet recognizing the potential for holistic and transformational adoption of these new indigenous food crop opportunities for African agriculture. Is ‘political will’ the missing sixth capital for sustainable development?
