Taxus baccata is a highly valued medicinal tree but overexploitation and inadequate natural regeneration, in addition to habitat destruction, has increased the threat of extinction. Various researchers have proposed with shoot cuttings as a cost effective method for this noble tree species which natural regeneration limited by prolonged seed dormancy. The present study was conducted to investigate the interactive effect of growth stage of shoot and IBA concentrations on rooting during four seasons. Regardless of season, rooting was influenced by growth stage, IBA treatment and their interaction. Best rooting performance was exhibited by cuttings planted during rainy season. Cuttings from second year shoot scored the highest rooting percentage in all season (47.3% in rainy &gt; 26.9% in autumn &gt;10.2% in winter) except in spring where third year shoot (22.8%) had the highest value. Rooting of cutting was enhanced by IBA treatment. Highest rooting percentage during spring (22.9%) and rainy season (44.0%) was achieved with low concentration of IBA (1000 ppm) whereas during autumn (25.9%) and winter season (28.4%) in cuttings higher rooting was induced by high concentration of IBA (4000-5000 ppm). The interaction between growth stage and IBA treatment was significant for all season except winter.
