| dc.description.abstract | A field and laboratory experiments were conducted during Rabi 2014-15 at Department of Horticulture and Department of Seed Science and Technology, UAS, GKVK, Bengaluru. The results revealed that open field condition recorded higher growth and seed yield attributes viz., plant height (80.73 cm), number of branches (15.13), flowering duration (73.4 days), number of flowers per plant (46.75), weight of the flower per plant (462 g), flower diameter (6.20 cm), number of seeds per flower (138.83), seed yield per plot (149 g), seed yield per hectare (593 kg). Among the micronutrients and biostimulant spray of humic acid 0.2 % + FeSO4 0.5 % + ZnSO4 0.5 % at 30 and 45 DAT was recorded higher growth, seed yield and quality attributes viz., plant height (86.63 cm), number of branches (16.40), days to 50 per cent flowering (27.5), flowering duration (76.3 days), number of flower per plant (53.23), weight of the flowers per plant (573 g), flower diameter (6.61 cm), number of seeds per flower (147.83), seed yield per plot (162 g), seed yield per hectare (644 kg), seed recovery (84 %), germination (87.17 %), test weight (3.32 g), seedling length (12.29 cm) and seedling dry weight (12.14 mg) SVI-I and SVI-II (1071 and 1059, respectively) with lower electrical conductivity (0.162 dSm-1). Combination of open field condition with humic acid 0.2 % + FeSO4 0.5 % + ZnSO4 0.5 % at 30 and 45 DAT has recorded highest net return (Rs. 4,28,790) and highest benefit cost ratio (1:1.97). | en_US |
