Abstract

The study was carried out to determine the suitable methods of different treatments for Barclaya motleyi Hook f. establishment in the nursery condition at FRST greenhouse, UNIMAS. Barclaya motleyi was cultivated using different growing media which are clay, peat, rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) leaves and tapang (Koompassia excels) leaves. The result of study show that for growing media clay show the best growth performance among the other media as it has highest biomass allocation value. The growth rate are determine by the biomass partitioning (total leaf number and total dry weight), leaf weight ratio (LWR), stem weight ratio (SWR), root weight ratio (RWR), rhizome weight ratio (UWR), leaf area ratio (LAR) and specific leaf area (SLA), dry matter production (DMP), net assimilation rate (NAR) and leaf area duration (LAD) that was being analyse in this study. For the different water depth with the shallow water depth (2cm), it show better performance as it have highest rate in the biomass allocation. There is no significant difference for the value of the LWR, SWR, UWR, RWR, LWR, SLA, DMP, NAR and LAD. For the different exposure of the container, the open condition container has better performance with the highest value in biomass allocation than the closed condition container. There is no significant difference for the LWR, RWR, SWR, UWR, LAR, SLA, DMP, NAR except for the LAD that has significant difference in the values. For the process of photosynthesis in four different species of Barclaya genus, the Barclaya roundifolia showed better yield production of photosynthesis rate. Therefore, for the cultivation of Barclaya motleyi in the nursery condition, it shows the cultivating the Barclaya motleyi with clay as growing media in the shallow water depth (2cm) in the open condition container.
