The stimulation of root formation on alfalfa cuttings
1936
Burton, G.W.
The work of Zimmerman and Wilcoxon with various organic chemicals which stimulated root development upon the stems of growing plants suggested the use of these chemicals to aid in the vegetative propagation of outstanding alfalfa plants obtained in the breeding nursery. Not only might a much greater quantity of seed be obtained in this way, a very important consideration in breeding work, but also the establishment of a number of individuals of the best plants in the greenhouse for seed production without disturbing the originals in the field would be possible, affording an opportunity to make additional observations on the adaptability of such plants in the field.
