Abstract

Abstract CO2 enrichment (1200 μl CO2/liter of air) during rooting increased the number of roots per cutting from 7.4 to 12.0 in Peperomia glabella A. Dietr. ‘Variegata’. CO2 enrichment increased length and dry weight of root systems and fresh and dry weights of whole cuttings in P. glabella, Fuchsia magellanica Lam., Peperomia nivalis Miq., Hemigraphis alternata T. Anderson, and Begonia × argenteo-guttata V. Lemoine but not in Osmanthus heterophyllus P.S. Green ‘Rotundifolius’, Ficus pumila L., and Pelargonium × hortorum L.H. Bailey ‘Sprinter Scarlet’. After 4 weeks of growth at 330 μl CO2/liter, only P. nivalis retained the size differential due to CO2 enrichment.
