Abstract

Three different auxins viz. NAA, IAA and IBA were tested alone and in combination for rooting responses under in vitro raised shoots. Out of three auxins (used at a concentration of 5.0 mg/l), NAA gave the best results showing highest frequency of rooting in the shoots of sugarcane varieties CoS 98259 & CoS 767.
