摘要
Berberis aristata DC. is critically endangered species of Indian Himalaya due to it's extensively collection of roots for its Berberine alkaloid. The objective of this research was to explore the possibility of propagating the species vegetatively to maintain its genetic identity and population. Therefore, an experiment was conducted by taking different cutting portions viz., apical, sub-apical and basal which were treated with various IBA concentrations viz., control, 2500, 5000 and 7500 ppm. Results shown that apical cuttings when treated with 5000 ppm IBA concentration performed significantly better in sprouting (85%) and rooting percentage (50%) in comparison to other treatments. While as control treatment had shown no rooting in all types of cutting portions.
