Abstract: Two successive experiments have been carried out and in the latter one the average length of the roots of the cuttings of Capejasmine treated with 240, 150, 90, 60, 30 and 0 ppm solution of sodium lignate for 48 hours and soaked in tap water for 17 days afterwards are 213, 195, 194, 155, 145 and 9 mm. respectively. It seems that sodium lignate could be used as a kind of auxin for rooting success.
