ABSTRACT
Field trials conducted during 2009-10 and 2010-11 at research orchard of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, Gwalior in sandy clay soil with different concentrations of IBA and NAA on rooting and survival percentage of pomegranate (Punica granatum L) air layers revealed that growth regulator IBA has better effect on rooting and survival percentage of pomegranate as compared to NAA. Also, application of IBA with 2000 ppm concentration is best for successful propagation of pomegranate air layers and among different concentration of NAA, 2000 ppm is the best.
