Abstract
An investigation was carried out at the Main Vegetables Research Station,
Anand Agricultural University, Anand during the summer season of 2007, to
assess the response of various plant growth regulators viz., Naphthalene acetic acid
(NAA) (100 and 200 ppm), Gibberellic acid (GA3) (10 and 20 ppm), Abscisic acid
(ABA) (10 and 20 ppm), Kinetin (10 and 20 ppm), Ethrel (200 and 300 ppm) and
control on growth, sex expression, yield and quality of cucumber cv. Gujarat
cucumber-1. The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design
with twelve treatments and three replications. Application of growth regulators
was done twice i.e. first spray at the 2 true leaf stage and the second spray at 4 true
leaf stage.
