Abstract:
The study of the vegetative multiplication of 5 clones of Ulmus pumila is carried out under conditions of a plant-producing nursery. The plantation was made in mid-autumn. The objective is to know the quantity of cuttings of length of 25 cm and their characteristics (basal diameter) obtained based on the new annual growth in 5 different clones. All the material obtained by each clone is cut and classified by basal diameter into 21 categories (< 2 mm to 25-30 mm). Survival rates of clones in October of the following year varied between 31%, 36%, 55%, 65% and 87%.
