'Domat' is the predominant large fruiting cultivar particularly suitable for green processing in Turkey. Leafy cuttings of 'Domat' olive are very difficult to rooting, so the nursery tree production is costly and time consuming. The effects of IBA and NAA mixtures were examined on the rooting of 'Domat' olive cuttings in two consecutive years. Moreover, the auxin sensitive phase of cuttings was also assessed. The mixing rate of 5 : 2 g/l (IBA : NAA) was found to be optimum for the highest rooting rates (up to 60%) and root quality in the two successive years. Application of IBA (5 g/l) at the 5th day of experiment initiation, significantly (p = 0.001) increased the per cent of rooting (63) compared to the cuttings treated at day 0 (46) and the figures of other rooting variables.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessOlivePropagationCuttingRootingAuxinArticle452427431WOS:000378981100022Q4
