Abstract: In order to improve the survival rate of Alocasia cucullata micropropagated plants transplanted into greenhouse, reduce production cost, improve working efficiency and economic benefits, the effects of different nutrient solutions on growth of Alocasia cucullata plantlets in greenhouse were investigated by analyzing growth parameters and physiological indexes. The results indicated that nutrient solution E (N:P:K=21:2:9) showed best on morphological and physiological indexes. The other four treatments showed no significant difference with each other. Compared with water, Alocasia cucullata which supplied with five nutrient solutions all showed better on growth.
