A research study titled “Effect of different rooting media and coloured polythene wrappers and interaction on root characters of guava under Vindhyan Plateau of Madhya Pradesh”. Fruit Research Station, Entkhedi, Bhopal (M.P.) during 2017-18 and 2018-19. The details of materials used in experimental they have two factors first one rooting media under 3 levels, wrapping materials they have 3 levels and rooting hormone they have 3 levels and 27 treatment combinations with control, the experiment analysed (Pooled Basis) under Factorial Randomized Block Design (FRBD), with three replications. The treatment details are rooting media M1- Soil, M2- Sphagnum moss and M3- Cocopit, wrapping materials W1- White polythene, W2- Red polythene and W3- Black polythene and rooting hormone G1- o ppm IBA, G2- 2000 ppm IBA and G3- 4000 ppm IBA. The observation was recorded under the experiment (shoot charecters) of air layering of guava such as Average diameter of primary and secondary roots, Average fresh and dry weight of roots. The result revealed that the maximum Average diameter of primary and secondary roots, Average fresh and dry weight of roots were found under the treatments of rooting media M2 (Sphagnum moss), followed by M3 (Coco-pit), Treatment of wrapping materials W3 (Black polythene), followed by W2 (Red polythene) and rooting hormone Treatment G3 (IBA 4000 PPM) followed by G2 (IBA 2000 PPM), while the minimum was observed under Control.
