dc.description.abstractThe present investigation entitled “Studies on foliar application of plant growth regulators and nutrients on fruit set and quality of ber (Ziziphus mauritiana Lamk.) under Bundelkhand region of Uttar Pradesh” was carried out during 2020-21 at Horticulture Instructional Farm, Department of Fruit Science, College of Horticulture, Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda 210001, (UP). The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design with 12 treatments. The treatments were applied in three replications. Among the fruit set & yield significant differences for percent of initial fruit set with the application of different concentration of plant growth regulators and nutrients. Maximum initial fruit set, final fruit set and average fruit yield was recorded with the application of T10 (GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2%). Among the physical attributes of fruit significantly maximum fruit length and fruit width was measured with the application of T10 (GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2%). Highest fruit weight and fruit volume was noted with the application of T10 (GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2%). The perusal of the data reveals that the specific gravity and pulp weight showed statistically trends. Maximum specific gravity and pulp weight was achieved with T10 (GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2%). Among the treatments, maximum seed weight was recorded with T1 (control). The maximum pulp/stone ratio was found with the application of treatment T10 (GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2%). Among the chemical attributes of fruit significantly maximum total soluble solids content was recorded inT10 (GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2%). Maximum protein was recorded with T10 (GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2%. Maximum reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar and total sugar content was observed with treatment T10 (GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2%). Lowest ascorbic acid and titratable acidity content was recorded in T10 (GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2%), while highest ascorbic acid in (T7) Urea (2%) and titratable acidity was observed in (T6) MOP (2%). Therefore, It is concluded that the application of GA3 50 ppm + NAA 30 ppm + KNO3 2% is the best combination for improving fruit set, reducing fruit drop and improving quality attributes and fruit yield of ber cv. Thai Apple and the same can be recommended to ber fruit growers and researchers.en_US
