Notes:
Pea plants were grown at different irradiances for eleven days. At this stage they were used for cuttings. The irradiance during the rooting period (155 mW · dm−2) was the same in all the experiments, Cuttings from stock plants cultivated at the weakest irradiance obtained the highest number of roots, and the poorest rooting appeared in cuttings from stock plants grown at the highest irradiance. The results indicate that the nutritional status of the stock plant is an important factor for root formation in the cutting. Light may influence the production of inhibitors which directly or indirectly affect root formation. The possible role of carbohydrates and growth promoters in the process of root formation is discussed.
