About
Mostafa M. Qrunfleh is a distinguished horticultural scientist whose research focuses on plant propagation, rooting physiology, and sustainable horticultural practices. His most-cited work investigates the use of natural plant extracts—specifically from Babylon weeping willow (*Salix babylonica* L.)—as alternatives to synthetic rooting hormones for olive stem cuttings (*Olea europaea* L. ‘Nabali’). This study, presented at the prestigious XXIX International Horticultural Congress (IHC2014) and published in 2016, has garnered 10 citations, reflecting its practical significance for organic and low-input agriculture. Qrunfleh’s contributions bridge traditional knowledge and modern horticultural science, offering eco-friendly solutions to improve rooting success in economically important fruit crops. His work is particularly valuable for Mediterranean and arid-region agriculture, where olive cultivation is vital. Beyond this landmark paper, Qrunfleh has advanced understanding of plant growth regulators, cutting propagation techniques, and the physiological responses of perennial fruit crops. His research continues to support farmers and nursery producers by reducing reliance on synthetic chemicals while enhancing crop productivity. For students and researchers in horticulture and plant science, Qrunfleh’s work exemplifies how natural compounds can drive innovation in sustainable crop management.
