CONDICIONES DE CULTIVO DE LA PLANTA MATRIZ Y USO DEL ÁCIDO INDOLBUTÍRICO EN LA PROPAGACIÓN DEL MANDARINO ‘SUNKI’ BAJO ESTAQUILLA

ABSTRACT Citrus rootstocks are obtained from seeds, selecting the apomitic seedlings. However, there is risk of not making the correct selection, due to low level of polyembryony and high heterozygosity in some species or cultivars, such as ‘Sunki’ mandarin. Therefore, obtaining the citrus rootstocks through cuttings may solve the problem. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of rooting semi-hardwood cuttings of ‘Sunki’ mandarin (Citrus sunki Hort. ex Tan), collected from mother plants cultivated on the field or in a greenhouse, using different concentrations of i...
