Abstract

In this research, softwood top cuttings were taken from one of mahaleb (Prunus mahaleb
L.) type grown in Konya Alaeddin Keykubat campus in early June. The softwood cuttings of the
mahaleb’s were rooted in pumice medium (0.0-5.0 mm) under misting system after treating with 0
(control), 500, 1500, 2500 ppm and 3500 ppm Indole-3-Butyric Acid (IBA) under 2 different
humidity of 85-90 % and 95-100 %. In the research, all the cuttings getting alive and rooted high ratio.
The highest ratio of cutting callus formation was found control group (% 41.50) in % 95-100
humidity level. The highest rooting was found from control, 2500 ppm and 3500 ppm hormone doses
to be 100 % in 95-100 % relative humudity. The highest rooting area lenght was found 3500 ppm
hormone dose (4.196 cm) in 95-100 % relative humidity. In point of root number, the highest number
was found from 3500 ppm hormone level application (27.667 number/cutting) in % 95-100 humidity
level. The longest root was found from control group (5.958 cm) in 95-100 % humidity level, the
shortest one was found from 2500 ppm IBA dose (0.323 cm) in 95-100 % humidity level. The highest
root branching was found 3500 ppm hormone dose (2.958 number/cutting) in 95-100 % humidity
level. 95-100 % humidity level was found better than 85-95 % humidity level for rooting of mahaleb
softwood cutting.

Mahlep (Prunus mahaleb L.) Yeşil Uç Çeliklerinin Köklenmesi Üzerine Farklı Hormon ve Nispi Nem Uygulamalarının Etkisi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Konya İli Alaaddin Keykubat kampus alanında yetişen bir mahlep (Prunus
mahaleb L.) tipinden erken Haziran (3 Haziran) tarihinde, yıllık sürgünlerinden alınarak hazırlanan
yeşil uç çelikleri, “Sisleme Sisteminde” % 85-90 ve % 95-100 hava nispi nem ortamı, Indol-3-Butirik
Asit’in (IBA) uygulanan 5 farklı konsantrasyonu (0, 500, 1500, 2500 ppm ve 3500 ppm) ve perlit
(0.0-5.0 mm) köklendirme ortamında köklendirmeye tabi tutulmuştur. Araştırmada, dikilen mahlep
çeliklerinin tümünün canlı kaldığı ve yüksek oranda köklendiği belirlenmiştir. Çeliklerde kalluslanma
en yüksek, % 95-100 nem seviyesindeki kontrol grubundan (% 41.50) elde edilmiştir. Köklenme oranı
% 95-100 nem seviyesinde, 2500 ppm ve 3500 ppm doz uygulamalarından (% 100) elde edilmiştir.
Çeliklerde köklenme yüzey uzunluğu, en fazla % 95-100 nem seviyesinde 3500 ppm doz
uygulamasında (4.196 cm) belirlenmiştir. Kök sayısı bakımından, en yüksek değer % 95-100 nem
seviyesindeki 3500 ppm doz uygulamasından (27.667 adet/çelik) elde edilmiştir. En uzun kök yine %
95-100 nem seviyesinde, 3500 ppm doz uygulamasından (5.958 cm), en kısa kök ise % 95-100 nem
seviyesinde, 2500 ppm doz uygulamasından (0.204 cm) elde edilmiştir. Çeliklerde kök dallanması,
yine en yüksek % 85-90 nem seviyesinde 3500 ppm doz uygulamasında (2.958 adet/çelik)
belirlenmiştir. Mahlep yeşil çelik köklendirmesinde % 95-100 nem seviyesi, % 85-90 nem seviyesine
göre daha yüksek değerler göstermiştir.
