Abstract

The effect of light-transforming additives integrated into the covering materials of vegetation structures during the rooting of physiologically active cuttings of Northern white-cedar (Thuja occidentalis L.) was investigated. Two types of covering materials based on a mesh nonwoven thermally bonded polypropylene fabric were tested: with the inclusion of light-transforming additives and without them. A covering material was used with a photoluminophore introduced into its composition, which is yttrium oxysulfide doped with europium (Y₂O₂SEu). The principle of the only logical difference is observed, as well as the basic requirements for the formulation of experience. A field stationary experiment was implemented with the fixation of morphometric parameters of root systems of cuttings. The strengthening of the regenerative ability of cuttings under the action of light-transforming shelters has been established. An increase in the indicators of the root-forming process was found in the average and total length of the adventitious roots formed on regenerated cuttings. A significant excess of the analyzed indicators was recorded when using a light-transforming fiber as a covering material in all repetitions of the experiment (forms and varieties). The excess of the average length of the roots and their average total length according to the variants of the experiment (types of shelters) was very noticeable and, accordingly, amounted to: Thuja occidentalis f. ‘Brabant’ — 2.69 and 2.70 times; Thuja occidentalis f. ‘Tiny Tim’ — 1.83 and 3.02 times; Thuja occidentalis f ‘Golden Smaragd’ — 2.26 and 9.17 times. The significance of the recorded differences was confirmed by the results of one-factor analysis of variance. A significant effect of differences in the types of shelter was found, which amounted to 11.43 ± 0.90 % (according to the Plokhinsky method) and 18.93 ± 0.83 % (according to the Snedekor algorithm). The positive effect of a light-transforming covering material for rooting cuttings of various decorative forms of Northern white-cedar was proved.
