Perbanyakan Baccaurea Dulcis dengan Cara Cangkok dengan Pemberian Zat Pengatur Tumbuh

The species of B. dulcis (Jack) Muell Arg. is endemic to Sumatra, and has been cultivated locally only in Southern parts of Sumatera and very small areas in West Java. Propagation of the species, generatively or vegetatively is very rare. The aim of this research was to find out the effect ofmedia and plant growth regulator to the success of airlayering propagation of B. dulcis. The research has been conducted in Bogor area using 3 plants, which its fruit quality had been selected. Two kinds of mediua (moss and compost) and 4 treatments of plant growth regulator, i.e. Control, solid IBA, diluted IBA and Rootone F were applied. The result of the airlayering propagation of B. dulcis was relatively low, i.e. 27,5% - 40%. There was no difference between 2 media as well as 4 treatments of plant growth regulator to the result of the propagation. There was no difference also between the combination of the media and plant growth regulator to the results of airlayering propagation of B. dulcis. The factors such as genetical character of the plant species, plant condition and environmental condition were presumably very much influence the results of the propagation.
