Redemption vegetative of the Tectona grandis Linn F. trees by the stakes rooting

The objective of this study was to evaluate the rooting of cuttings of shoots arising from coppicing and stem girdling of teak trees, as well as stakes originated the root system. Trees were selected in commercial plantations (propagated via seminiferous) of 5, 10 and 15 years old, in Bakirifarm, located in the city Alta Floresta, Mato Grosso, Brazil. Twenty trees were selected by age, the three treatments being applied (cuts off, annealingand root collection). The experiment followed a factorial arrangement (3 x 3) in experimental design entirely to the decline, considering the three ages and the three treatments tested. With the results obtained significant differences were found for the budding and number of shoots in relation to age, rescue technique, never the less there were no statistical differences in the interaction "old x rescue technique". As for root cutting, statistical differences were observed only on the rescue technique. The results indicated that the rescue techniques by cuts off and the stem girdling demonstrated a potential in vegetative recovery of this species. The rescue of teak trees by the method of root cuttings, does not be come viable under the conditions evaluated, because of the low strike rate (4%) and not getting shoots at the stake.
