    “EFFECT OF PLANT GROWTH REGULATORS ON VEGETATIVE GROWTH, FLOWERING AND CORM PRODUCTION IN GLADIOLUS (Gladiolus hybridus Hort.) CV. WHITE PROSPERITY”
    (Banda University of Agriculture & Technology, Banda-210001, Uttar Pradesh, India, 2021-10-30) PATEL, RAM NIHOR; Kumar, Rakesh
    An investigation on “Effect of plant growth regulators on vegetative growth, flowering and corm production in gladiolus (Gladiolus hybridus Hort.) cv. White Prosperity” was carried out at Department of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture, College of Horticulture, Banda University of Agriculture & Technology, Banda during 2020-21. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications. The corms dipped for 24 hours with various plant growth regulators solutions in different concentrations viz. GA3 (100 ppm, 150 ppm & 200 ppm), NAA (50 ppm, 100 ppm & 150 ppm) were planted along with the control. All the growth and yield parameters were periodically observed. Analysis of results revealed that the application of GA3 @ 200 ppm corm dip + 200 ppm foliar spray significantly improved all economically important parameters viz. days taken to 50 percent sprouting of corms (15.00 days), plant height at 3 -leaf stage (41.28 cm) and 6-leaf stage (51.96 cm), leaf width (2.42 cm), leaf area (89.35 cm2 ), days taken to spike emergence (93.43 days), days taken to full opening of first floret (110.20 days), floret diameter (12.34 cm), number of spikes per plant (1.06), duration of flowering (18.06 days), water uptake (76.80 ml), number of corms per plant (1.26) and weight of cormels per plant (17.37 g) whereas GA3 @ 150 ppm corm dip + 150 ppm foliar spray recorded maximum number of leaves (7.73), leaf length (38.17 cm), number of florets per spike (12.80), spike length (87.30 cm), rachis length (47.86 cm), fresh weight of spike (61.60 g), vase life (8.33 days), number of cormels per plant (43.52), corm diameter (5.37 cm) and weight of corm per plant (37.58 g).
