Greenhouse, laser radiation, and in vitro culture studies on the growth and propagation of Algerian ivy (Hedera canariensis L.)
type: CreativeWork
description: The results of this research demonstrated that the combination of benzylaminopurine (BA) + gibberellic acid (GA$\sb{4 + 7}$) (Promalin) promoted branching of Hedera canariensis (Algerian Ivy) better than applications of BA or GA$\sb{4 + 7}$ alone. Moreover, as the concentration of Atrinal is increased, branch length and leaf number significantly decreased for both pinched and unpinched plants. Plants treated with Atrinal displayed more new shoots per node than those treated with GA$\sb{4 + 7}$, BA, or Promalin. 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA) significantly increased the branching of Hedera canariensis, although the shape of the plant was not commercially acceptable due to foliage epinasty.
