Effects of Different Mediums on the Bury-layering Propagation of Corylus heterophylla×avellana
Corylus heterophylla×avellana,having such features as big fruit,high kernel rate and stable and high fruit yield,is a fine Coryluscultivar suitable for planting in Anhui Province.In this paper,a study was made on the effects of different medi-ums on the bury-layering saplings to screen out the optimum medium.The results showed that different mediums had different effects on the rooting of the bury-laying saplings,in which the roots of the saplings treated with 15-cm-deep Quercusspawn culture medium+garden soil had better indexes than those treated with other mediums,followed by those treated with 15-cm-deep garden soil,which is easily available with low cost and could be used as the medium in areas with insufficient Quercus spawn culture medium.
