Experiment laid out in Factorial Randomized Block Design with three replications ten treatment combinations. consisted two factors. Factor A: Varie...

experiments were carried out in a commercial orchard during 1994, 1995 and 1996 to determine the influence of chemical thinning on characterisics of fruit and alternate bearing of native olive (olea europea l) cvs. dezfoul and fishomi at early fruitlet stage. in 1994, branch sprays of naphthalene acetic acid (100, 150 and 200 mg/l), naphthalene acetamide (200 and 300 mg/l) and urea (0.6 and 1.2...

Auxinic-like compounds have been widely used as weed control agents. Over the years, the modes of action of auxinic herbicides have been elucidated, but most studies thus far have focused on their effects on later stages of plant growth. Here, we show that some select auxins and auxiniclike herbicides trigger a rapid elevation in root cytosolic calcium levels within seconds of application. Arab...

African marigold, being tall enough and producing large flowers suitable for preparing garlands, is the most cultivated cultivar of marigold in Nepal. Besides, pinching other improved cultural techniques, a number chemicals, hormones phyto-hormones are tested found to impart varying response marigold. This review has its importance standardizing type concentration plant growth regulators Online...

This study investigated the effects of magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) various sizes (10.77, 20.5, and 29.3 nm), different concentrations (0.5, 1, 2 ppm) on growth production active constituents in Ginkgo biloba L callus. The best medium for callus proliferation was MS supplemented with 1 ppm naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), Kinetin, 0.5 MNPs a size 10 nm, which gave maximum fresh weight percentag...

An efficient in vitro regeneration protocol has been developed from shoot tips of Drosera burmannii Vahl., a carnivorous plant of north-east India. Various plant growth regulators were used to study their efficacy in the induction of multiple shoots and roots. Of the various treatments, the maximum number of shoots (28.8 ± 1.5) and roots (9.7 ± 0.6) was observed in one-fourth strength standard ...

Anaerobic naphthalene degradation by a sulfate-reducing enrichment culture was studied by substrate utilization tests and identification of metabolites by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. In substrate utilization tests, the culture was able to oxidize naphthalene, 2-methylnaphthalene, 1and 2-naphthoic acids, phenylacetic acid, benzoic acid, cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, and cyclohex-1-ene-ca...

The present study, "Effect of plant growth regulators on growth, fruit setting, and quality guava (Psidium guajava L.) in meadow orchard," was carried out the years 2021–2022, at Central Research Farm, Department Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom Institute Agriculture & Sciences, Prayagraj (U.P.). Ten treatments made up experiment with: control, three concentrations gibberellic acid (GA3) 75, ...
