Abstract:
An experiment was undertaken to study the effect of mycorrhizae on growth and yield parameters of chilli cv. Kashi Anmol. It was revealed that both the growth and yield parameters performed best with the soil application of Bolt Gr. at an optimum concentration for its application is 10 kg/ha with a single application at 20 DAT. It recorded the minimum days to 50% flowering (40.25 days), highest plant height at 30 DAT (23.70 cm), highest fruit length (6.98 cm), maximum fruit width (1.01 cm), highest fruit weight (3.00 g), maximum number of seeds per fruit (84.00) and maximum test weight (5.59 g). Ratchet with its optimum concentration of 300 mL/ha as foliar application twice at 30 and 60 DAT and Proventus DS with optimum concentration of 100 g/ha as soil application twice at 30 and 60 DAT were recorded as the second best treatment.
