Metabolic processes in adventitious rooting of cuttings

  • Chapter
New Root Formation in Plants and Cuttings

Part of the book series: Developments in Plant and Soil Sciences ((DPSS,volume 20))

Abstract

A cutting is in a thermodynamically unfavourable state from the time it is prepared [1]. Part of the physical and physiological support, the root system, is gone. Only a new root system can restore ‘whole plant’ thermodynamics and sustain life. Altered metabolism in a cutting regenerates the root system.
