| Abstract | |
Brazilian Fructiculture has an important standart on world' s fruit production. Brazil is one of the three largest producers worldwide, with an up to 34 millions of ton production (Preços Agricolas, 2000; SECEX/ MDIC, 2002). In spite of that brazillian commercial fructiculture abundance, several fruit species, both native and exquisite, has shown a huge potential, yet few explored, mainly concerning to those subtropical and tropical climate species. This project has as a goal the study about viability of propagation of this two species through the stem rooting method, from matrix trees on "Estação Experimental do Instituto Agronômico de Campinas, in Mococa, in order to estimate the possibility of commercial exploration of those species. In front of the results, it was found that neither the kind of stem, nor the application of different doses of auxins, as well as the formulation of the auxin used, or even the season had influentied positively on stem rooting on Rédia and Abiu (AU) | |
