Abstract

<p>The growth of cutting plants in the tea cultivar ‘Sunrouge’ was investigated in a nursery bed at the Kanaya research station of our institute. ‘Sunrouge’ originated in an interspecific hybrid between Camellia sinensis and C. taliensis. Survival rates were over 95 % for 4 years, and there were no significant differences between ‘Sunrouge’ and the Japanese leading cultivar ‘Yabukita’. Rooting ability of cutting plants was very good. Excessive callus formation at the base of cuttings was not seen. Plant height, above-ground dry weight and under-ground dry weight in ‘Sanrouge’ plants were smaller than those of ‘Yabukita’ plants. The number of blanches arise from upper axis of cutting of Sunrouge’ were 2.6 and were much than those of ‘Yabukita’. Ordinary cutting propagation of ‘Sunrouge’ in a nursery bed was possible without rooting promoter, special equipment nor techniques.</p>
