Abstract

Investigation was made on the influence of in vitro roots on the acclimatization of micropropagated jelutong. Survival was higher for shoots treated with auxin in the previous stage. This study also indicated that the type of auxin used strongly affect the Aziah et al. 1999 Endospermum malaccense Aziah 2003 and Tectona grandis Monteuuis et al. 1999. Studies on jelutong showed promising results Aziah and Darus 1995 Aziah 1996. However transfer to pre nursery stage resulted in vary low survival of micropropagated jelutong. The best auxins for in vitro rooting were IBA and IAA at 10-5 M. These gave higher rooting percentage higher survival percentage and better performance. Greenhouse conditions greatly affect the survival at acclimatization stage and emphasis has to be put on this. Finally fine droplets of misting system with plastic chamber as humidity tent could improve survival and shoot quality.
