The rooting of Ottawa 3 apple rootstock by softwood cuttings under intermittent mist was improved by using a source of micropropagated plants (63%) in comparison to two conventionally propagated sources (47 and 42%). Softwood cuttings from the micropropagated plants also developed larger root masses than softwood cuttings from the conventional sources. Basal cuttings rooted better than tip cuttings (71 vs. 23%).
