Durian, scientifically known as Durio zibethinus Murr., is a nutrient-rich
fruit. With the increasing market demand year after year, there is a need to
enhance durian production and quality by improving seedlings through plant
propagation. This study aims to multiply durian varieties using vegetative
propagation methods to obtain superior varieties. The research employed a
completely randomized design with two factors and three replications. The
observed variables included the time of bud emergence, bud length, number of
buds, number of leaves, upper stem diameter, and the percentage of successful
grafting. The data were statistically analyzed using analysis of variance
(ANOVA), followed by the LSD (Least Significant Difference) test at the 5%
level. The results showed that after 56 days of treatment, there were significant
effects on the bud length, number of buds, upper stem diameter, and number of
leaves.
