Abstract
Root sucker resulted maximum rooting, average root length (6.74 cm), root diameter (0.87mm), longest root length (25.33cm) and shoot number per cuttings. Number of roots per cutting (33.30) and best root quality resulted in root suckers. Cutting treated with 3000 ppm IBA resulted maximum number of cutting rooted, root number, root diameter, root length, shoot length, leaf number, and best quality root. Sucker treated with 3000 ppm IBA interacted significantly for the rooting potential and growth.
