Presenting great resistance to drought, Cnidoscolus quercifolius Pohl (faveleira) is a species that can be used as fodder, medicinal, human food, biodiesel and to restore degraded areas. However, there are difficulties regarding the technique of rooting cuttings and, therefore, it was used in this work asalternative layering technique. The treatments consisted of substrates and concentrations of IAA (indole acetic acid).There was a percentage of 46% rooting in vermiculite tailings. Vermiculite tailings yielded a significant gain of dry root matter. Regarding the doses of AIA, no significant differences were found for any variable.Downloads
