The Growth Regulating Effects of Fungicides on Adventitious Root Formation of Chrysanthemum Cuttings
Abstract
Ten commercial fungicides were applied to cuttings of Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat 'Bright Golden Anne' to determine their effect on adventitious root formation. Thiram, Captan, Botran, and Banrot inhibited root elongation and growth. Root initiation, as measured by root number, was delayed but was not permanently affected. Other treatments had little or no effect on rooting when compared to the control. No noticeable effects on top growth occurred.
