Short Communication: Agronomical characteristics of sweet corn under different plant growth regulators during the dry season

Abstract. Mubarok S, Wicaksono FY, Nuraini A, Rahmat BPN, Budiarto R. 2022.S hort Communication: Agronomical characteristics of sweet corn under different plant growth regulators during the dry season. Biodiversitas 23: 3091-3098. Sweet (Zea mays convar. saccharata var. rugosa)is one important horticultural crops. Increasing production season can be achieved by applying (PGR). PGRs such as auxin, gibberellin, cytokinin, ethylene, and other phytohormones control various physiological chemical processes in plants. The PGR is often used for engineering process cultivation technology, especially environmental stress conditions. This study aimed to determine effect (auxin, gibberellic acid, salicylic paclobutrazol) on yield results showed that application significantly affected growth, yield, quality auxin increased height leaf length, whereas paclobutrazol acid number cobs total soluble solids corn, respectively.
