Summary, etc. Investigations were carried out at the Department of Plantation Crops and <br/>Spices, College of Horticulture, Vellanikkara to standardise the propagation <br/>through cuttings in Gymnema sylvestre R.Br., a much sought rare medicinal plant <br/>most valued for its hypoglycaemic property. <br/>Being a difficult-to-root species through cuttings, the study included <br/>vegetative propagation measures with treatment combinations involving two <br/>different environments, four different growth regulator treatments and three <br/>different types of vines. <br/>The investigation conclusively proved that softwood cutting comprising <br/>of terminal ends and young lateral shoots is the ideal propagule in Gymnema. <br/>Intermittent mist was found to significantly increase the rooting efficiency. <br/>Treatment with growth regulators in general gave higher rooting success and among <br/>the growth regulators IAA was found to be superior than NAA and IBA. <br/>Significant interaction effect was noticed among different treatments. The <br/>softwood cuttings treated with IAA 500 mg l-1 and kept in mist showed maximum <br/>synergetic effect with regard to rooting success and other qualitative root characters. <br/>It was followed by softwood cuttings treated with NAA 500 mg l-1 and kept in mist. <br/>The study also showed that presence of leaves was essential for <br/>enhancing rooting efficiency in Gymnema cuttings. The rooted cuttings did not <br/>., <br/>significantly differ in their field establishment rate irrespective of the type of <br/>cuttings or the environment provided for rooting. <br/> <br/> <br/>The root initials were found to be originating from secondary phloem <br/>cells. There was hardly any anatomical difference among the different type of <br/>cuttings. No anatomical barriers for rooting could be located. Biochemical analysis <br/>revealed that the carbohydrates, nitrogen, protein content and CIN ratio increased <br/>during root initiation and primordia formation but decreased during emergence of <br/>roots. <br/>
