KADAR HORMON AUKSIN PADA TANAMAN KENAF (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) BERCABANG DAN TIDAK BERCABANG
Abstrak: Kenaf is one of fiber
producing plants. According to the existence of branches, kenaf is classified
into two group, consisting of: kenaf with branch and with no branch.Morphology
observation, consist of the height of plant, the number of node, the number of
branch and the length of branch was observed. The morphology observation showed
that there were differences morphological characters, including of the height
of plant, the number of node, the length of branch, and the number of node more
branching kenaf, control non branching (KR11) and control branching (SM004).Non
branching plants (KR11) have the highest habitus and smallest number of branch
compare to other groups. Control branching (SM004) was the shortest habitus and
greatest number of branch compare to other group. The highest of Non branching
plants (KR11) 230,6 ± 36,7 cm and the smallest control branching (SM004) 116,3
± 64,4 cm. The greatest number of branch found in controled branch SM004, with
5,6 ± 2,7 branch in every plant and the smallest is KR11 with 0,8 ± 0,8 branch
in every plant.According to this research the length of plant influence the
branch. The highest level of auxin were in the shoot tip and the lowest level
were in root tip. The higher auxin will produce less branch, the lower auxin
will produce more branch.
