Abstract:The effects of IBA and different cutting types, retaining leaves ways on cutting propagation of wild vegetable Solanum photeinocarpum cultured in water were studied. The results showed that the rooting from shoot with half leaf was 100% treated with 5～35 mg L-1 IBA, but the average of rooting was the highest treated with 20 mg L-1 IBA. The rooting from hardwoods with half leaf could be promoted treated with 15～35 mg L-1 IBA, which it had the best effect treated with 35 mg L-1 IBA. The softwoods and hardwoods treated with 20 and 25 mg L-1 IBA, respectively, the rooting effects was in order of segments with half leaf > whole leaf > without leaf.
