medium supplemented with NAA. Similar results have
already been reported in Vigna species like, Vigna mungo
(Saini and Jaiwal 2002) and Vigna unguiculata (Tang et
al. 2012). The effectiveness of IBA to induce roots was
reported in Vigna mungo (Saini and Jawal 2002) and Parkia
biglobosa (Jacq.) Benth (Sambe et al. 2010). According to
Rajeswari and Paliwal (2008), IBA is an auxin with high
potential for root induction on shoots. The superiority of
IBA for rooting over other auxins (NAA and IAA) has also
been reported in many leguminous species including Vigna
unguiculata (Aasim et al. 2010), Cicer arietinum (Tripathi
et al. 2013) and Cajanus cajan (Raghavendra and Sudhakar
2014).
