PERBANYAKAN TANAMAN PASAK BUMI (Eurycoma longifolia Jack) SECARA GENERATIF DAN VEGETATIF DI PERSEMAIAN
ABSTRACT: Pasak bumi (Eurycoma
longifolia Jack) is a native plant to Indonesia which has many properties and
benefits. Howevel the population in the natural forest is increasingly rare due
toexcessive exploitation. Pasak bumi has recalcitrant seeds type phenological
conditions it is amonopodial type plant so that its multiplication can be
produced vegetatively by stem cutting.This research aimed to get the suitable
method for pasak bumi plant propagation. This study anexperimental method by
comparing generative with seeds and stump method and used vegetative cuttings.
Seed germinated an moss began on day 12 th with a percentage of 38,84%, whereas
on sand media did not germinate at all. Stump survival percentage was 84,5%,
newshoots grow out after 1 month after planting. The growing percentage of
cuttings was 20,8%.Both seedling stump and cutting were growing sprout from the
shoots and was stems, with avarying number of buds. Environmental conditions
such as air temperature, humidity, and lightintensity affected the processes of
the pasak bumi propagation.
