Abstract

The study was conducted under protective environment of bamboo nurseries at Cagayan State University Gonzaga Campus. The study was conducted to determine the effect of Different Rooting Hormones on the Survival of Three Species of Bamboo- Giant Bamboo (Dendrocalamus giganteus), Machiku (Dendrocalamus latiflorus), and Spiny bamboo (Bambusa blumeana).It aimed to determine the average number of shoots after three (3) months, average length (cm) of shoots after three (3) months, average number of roots after three (3) months, average length (cm) of roots after 3 months, and the percentage (%) of survival. The study was conducted in a single factor experiment under Completely Randomized Design (CRD).There are four treatments in the study which are: T0– control, T1– Alpha Naphthalene Acetic Acid (ANAA); T2- Gibberellic Acid (GA3); and T3- Indole Acetic Acid (Auxin).
