Kuntze, is an extraordinary valued tree highly targeted for intensive illegal logging and consequently categorized as an endangered species needing immediate protection and conservation interventions. The aim of this study is to determine cost- effective techniques in the mass propagation of hard-to-reproduce species, for conservation and production purposes. A 2x6 factorial experiment in Split-plot design was laid out with twelve (12) treatment combinations replicated three (3) times. There were two (2) methods of propagation (misting and non-misting) as the main plot and six (6) levels of concentration of IBA as subplots (0 ppm, 300 ppm, 500 ppm, 1000 ppm, 1500 ppm and 2000 ppm). The observational study period is three (3) months. The result shows that there was no significant difference observed between the two methods of propagation with regards to length of roots. No significant difference was also shown for the interaction effects among methods of reproduction and levels of concentration. However, significant difference was observed among the levels of concentration where the highest length of roots was noted in the control (10.36 cm) cuttings. This was closely followed by the concentration 300 ppm (9. 70 cm). The least among the treatment was noted from 2000 ppm (7.74 cm). On the number of roots, the most number was recorded from 2000 ppm (12.83) while the control cuttings had the least with 2.50. On the rooting percentage, the treatment combination between methods of propagation and levels concentration showed significant difference. The non-misting propagation combined with B3 (300 ppm IBA) and B, (1000 ppm IBA) produced the highest percentage of roots with 100% and was followed by the group of 500 ppm IBA (93%). The lowest percentage of roots was noted in the misting method at 300 ppm IBA concentration (30%). On the root biomass, methods of propagation exhibited a significant difference. The ion-misting method had the higher root biomass at 1.98 g as compared to misting with 0.51g . lt was concluded that the application of IBA can work either alone or combination. It significantly accelerated the number of root formation of the length of roots, and the root biomass per cutting. The study infers that the length of roots and the number of roots formed were significantly influenced by the levels of IBA concentration, while root biomass was higher at non-mist propagation system. Furthermore, rooting percentage had a significant difference on the interaction between methods of propagation and levels of IBA concentration. Moreover, the lpil stem cuttings can be propagated through either of the methods. As a recommendation, /. bijuga can be best propagated generally with the more economical technique of mass propagation using non-misting with or without exogenous rooting hormone treatment UR - http://181.215.242.151/cgi-bin/koha/opac-retrieve-file.pl?id=83a80570022d73ca7cccec254b90c076 UR - http://181.215.242.151/cgi-bin/koha/opac-retrieve-file.pl?id=92bd82cc8ff96f81de3cb28b9738366f ER -
