Abstract

Local olive varieties Istarska bjelica and Rosulja because of good economic
characteristics are increasingly spreading through the raising of young olive groves on
the island of Krk. Previous experience show very poor rooting cuttings of these varieties
to the production of olive plants. The aim of this study was to investigate the quality of
rooting cuttings of varieties Istarska bjelica i Rosulja with different concentrations of
IBA. The results show the highest percentage of rooted cuttings of both cultivars at
concentrations of 5.000 p.p.m. and the lowest in the control variants. Cultivar Istarska
bjelica had a lower percentage of rooted cuttings in the control variants and in the
concentration of 5.000 p.p.m.
