Abstract

The experiment was conducted to elucidate the effects of different spacings on regeneration of stool shoots in pomegranate (Punica granatum L.). The report may be the first experiment based documentation of pomegranate propagation through mound layering. Plant height (cm), rooting percentage (%), length of longest root, number of roots per plant, average root length (cm), number of total and rooted shoots per plant, per m2 and per plot (3 x 2 m) were recorded. The results suggest that the performance of stool shoots were significantly influenced by spacing between mother stocks. The total shoot production per plot and per m2 (217.25 and 36.37, respectively) and rooted shoot production per plot and per m2 (117.15 and 19.51, respectively) were found significantly higher at the spacing of 0.5 x 0.5 m. The rooting of stool shoots found increased from 55.50 to 70.95% with the increase in spacing from 0.5 x 0.5 m to 1 x 1 m.
