Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the production of jacaranda (Jacaranda mimosifolia D. Don) plantlets by minicutting. For this, a mini-clonal hedge was established to supply sprouts for minicuttings. For adventitious rooting, the minicuttings were treated with hydroalcoholic solution of indolebutyric acid at concentrations of 0, 1000, and 2000 mg L-1 and grown in a greenhouse. The survival of minicuttings was evaluated at 30, 60, and 90 days, and rooting, callus, sprouting, leaf area, root area, aerial dry mass, root dry mass, total dry mass, and aerial/root dry mass ratio were assessed at 90 days. The rooted minicuttings were treated with different volumes of nutrient solution (0, 25, and 50 mL) and were evaluated for survival, height, diameter, leaf area, root area, aerial dry mass, root dry mass, and aerial/root dry mass ratio of the plantlets after 30 days of cultivation in a shade house and full sunlight. Jacaranda can be established in a mini-clonal hedge for the production of shoots necessary for the preparation of minicuttings. The minicuttings are rooted in a greenhouse without use of indolebutyric acid. The plantlets produced can be acclimatized in a shade house and rustified in full sun. Jacaranda plantlets can be produced by minicuttings.
