This study was conducted to investigate the propagation characteristics of Cephalotaxus koreana by cutting, whose plant has been known to new anticancer treatments. The treatments of plant growth regulators, cutting media temperature and growing media were investigated to know the rooting ability of cuttings. For rooting formation affected by plant growth regulars and its concentration, The application of IBA 100 mg/L was most effective in all of the characteristics including rooting rate of 88.5%. The optimum media temperature by cutting was 24℃ (treatment IBA 100 mg/L, rooting rate 84.6%), predicting that greenwood cutting from June to July is most effective. VPPL (vermiculite+peatmoss+perlite 1:1:1(v/v/v)) showed the highest value in all of the characteristics including rooting rate of 68.5% for the effect of growing media on rooting formation.
