| dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was carried out during (2021-22 and 2022-23) with the object of assessing the effect of potassium silicate and humic acid on growth and development of Jamun (Syzygium cumini (L.) Skeels.) cv. Goma Priyanka. Four doses of potassium silicate (KS) viz. 0, 1000, 2000, and 3000 ppm, four doses of humic acid (HA) 0, 1000, 2000 and 3000 ppm and their combinations viz. KS (1000 ppm) + HA (1000 ppm), KS (1000 ppm) + HA (2000 ppm), KS (1000 ppm) + HA (3000 ppm), KS (2000 ppm) + HA (1000 ppm), KS (2000 ppm) + HA (2000 ppm), KS (2000 ppm) + HA (3000 ppm), KS (3000 ppm) + HA (3000 ppm) were tried in 16 treatment combinations in factorial randomized block design. The foliar application of potassium silicate KS3 (3000 ppm) treatment resulted in increased plant growth attributes viz. rootstock girth, scion girth, plant height, canopy volume, canopy spread E-W, N-S, number of nodes shoot-1, internodal length, number of leaves shoot-1, number of shoots primary branch-1, leaf length, leaf width, leaf area, petiole length and leaf area index of Jamun cv. Goma Priyanka plants as compared to other treatments. The foliar response of KS3 (3000 ppm) also improve the physiological variables viz. relative water content, total chlorophyll, membrane stability index, photosynthetic active radiation, photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance and relative humidity in leaves and also cause decline in proline content of Jamun cv. Goma Priyanka plants. The foliar response of humic acid HA3 (3000 ppm) treatment registered relatively better plant growth parameters viz. rootstock girth, scion girth, plant height, canopy volume, canopy spread E-W, N-S, number of nodes shoot-1, internodal length, number of leaves shoot- 1, number of shoots primary branch-1, leaf length, leaf width, leaf area, petiole length and leaf area index of Jamun cv. Goma Priyanka plants. The foliar application of HA3 (3000 ppm) level improved the physiological parameters viz. relative water content, total chlorophyll, membrane stability index, photosynthetic active radiation, photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance and relative humidity in leaves and also manifested decline in proline content of Jamun cv. Goma Priyanka plants. The interaction effect of potassium silicate and humic acid response was found maximum in T15 treatment comprising (KS 3000ppm + HA 3000 ppm) with respect to augmentation in plant growth parameters and physiological variables. The foliar application of T15 treatment recorded maximum increase in plant growth parameters as well as majority of physiological variables except proline content which was observed minimum in this treatment. | |
