Abstract: The experiment entitled “Studies on propagation through semi hard wood cuttings in karonda†was carried out at College of Horticulture, Dr. Y.S.R. Horticultural University, Venkataramannagudem, Tadepalligudem, West Godavari District. The semi hard wood cuttings of karonda cultivars viz., pink-fruited plants and green-fruited plants were treated with different growth regulators treatments (IBA and NAA) along with control and the experiment was carried out in Factorial Randomised Block Design with 3 replications comprising 14 treatment combinations. The experiment results indicate that among cultivars, semi-hardwood cuttings of green fruited plant performed better than semi-hardwood cuttings of pink fruited plant with respect to rooting parameters like percentage of rooting, survival percentage, number of roots per cuttings, length of longest root per cuttings and percentage of establishment in main field at 90 DAP. Among growth regulator treatments, IBA @ 8000 ppm was found best and in case of interaction effects it was found that the combination of semi-hardwood cuttings of green fruited and IBA @ 8000 ppm was observed to be significantly superior with respect to rooting parameters.
