Efectos de dos hormonas enraizantes sobre estacas de cacao (Theobroma cacao L) de la variedad CCN 51 en la zona de Matilde Esther, en la provincia del Guayas

Abstract

The research work was carried out with the objective of studying the effect of two rooting hormones on CCN-51 cacao clonal plants at nursery level, in the province of Guayas, Bucay county, Matilde Esther's enclosure in the nursery of Mr. Wilmer Palacios Geographical: 2 ° 11' 26.5¨ South latitude and 79º 05' 38.4¨ West longitude, with an altitude of 463 meters above sea level. The block design was applied at random, with 4 treatments and 6 replicates. In addition, Tukey significance tests were performed at 5% for significant treatments, where the following results were obtained: the number of stakes attached to The 60 days (%) there is no statistical difference but mathematically treatment H2D2 (hormone IBA with 800 mg dose) with an average of 80%. For the variable number of outbreaks at 65 days if there is significance where the H1D2 treatment (hormone 1 with 800 mg dose) presents the best result with an average of 3.22 and treatment H1D1 (hormone 1 with a dose of 400 mg) which Lower average presented with 2.70. The variable Root length has statistical significance, being the best treatment H2D2 (IBA hormone with 800 mg dose) with an average of 13.08 cm and the treatment H1D1 (hormone 1 with dose of 400 mg) the lower average presented with 6.42 cm, this Occurred 70 days after the propagation. The volume variable of the root mass is statistically significant, with the treatment H2D2 (IBA hormone with 800 mg dose) the best result presented with an average of 2.77 cc and the treatment H1D1 (hormone 1 with a dose of 400 mg) Average presented with 0.47 cc.
