This paper focuses on the assessment of selected stimulators, especially from Rhizopon product line, which are used for rooting and root system enhancement in various ornamental woody species. Two available methods of cuttings stimulation were selected from the available range of rooting stimulators: stimulation by long-term immersion in solutions or treatment of cuttings with powder stimulators. The experiment involved stimulators with two active components, currently the most commonly used phytohormones for this purpose - IBA and NAA - that were applied in different concentrations. The experiment took place in three propagation terms with twelve coniferous and deciduous shrub varieties. The results of the experiment show the different reactions of the individual species as well as varieties on the respective term of propagation and used form of stimulator.

Keywords: propagation, cuttings, rooting stimulators, Rhizopon
Grants and funding:

This research was carried out under the project of Testing the Rhizopon preparation for use in commercial sphere in professional nursery enterprises, a programme of Innovation voucher - transfer of technologies, in co-operation with JIC Brno implementation agency and Pasič spol. s r. o., Dolní Životice.
