Abstract:
The present study entitled Effect of INM for growth parameters of tissue cultured Banana cv. Grand Naine under North Indian Condition was conducted at Horticulture Garden, Department of Fruit Science, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture & Technology Kanpur (U.P.) India, during the cropping season 2019-20.The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications and ten treatments. The results showed that application of T₇ (75% RDF of P + 100% RDF of NK + 25% FYM + 25% vermicompost + 50g Azospirillum + 50g PSB) has resulted in the maximum plant height at 60,120,180 and 240 days (60.25, 110.48, 165.37 and 221.22 cm), pseudostem girth at 60,120,180 and 240 days (23.74, 40.16, 51.53 and 67.40 cm), number of leaves per plant at 60,120,180 and 240 days (9.38, 16.24, 23.13 and 26.97), number of suckers per plant at shooting stage (8.37), leaf area (10.43 m2), length of inflorescence (122.23 cm) with minimum days taken to flowering (282.81), days taken to fruit harvest (85.83).
