Abstract:
An experiment was conducted at Horticultural Research Station, Anantharajupeta, to know effect of biostimulants on postharvest yield of muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) cultivars. Four cultivars along with six biostimulants were assessed for their shelf life (days). Among the cultivars Punjab Suneheri recorded highest shelf life. Highest shelf life was recorded in the treatment with homobrassinolide @ 3 ml/lit (T₃). Interaction amongst the treatment combinations showed that highest shelf life was observed in the treatment combination C₁ T₃ (Homobrassinolide @ 3 ml/lit on Punjab Suneheri).
