Abstract


Mulberry is a perennial heterozygous plant possesses variability due to its free crossing in nature. In farmer's field, mulberry is generally propagated and multiplied through vegetative means. In vegetatively cultivated crops, root initiation and rooting ability are considered as primary selection criteria as they contribute and stabilize yield. Thus, the present study was undertaken to know the rooting percentage variability of propagation traits, interaction of accessions with different season and genetic contribution of mulberry accession toward expression of propagation traits.
