Abstract:
The treatment (T₆) GA₃ 125 ppm + Biomix 4% found superior in terms of minimum number of days required for sprouting (13.27 days), highest success percentage (92.83%) at 30 DAG. While the maximum number of leaves (39.20), maximum height of graft (50.13 cm), girth of scion (7.57 mm), girth of rootstock (11.02 mm), sprout length (7.85 cm), maximum number of shoot (5.13), maximum fresh and dry weight of shoot (37.73 g and 33.73 g respectively), maximum fresh and dry weight of leaves (12.93 & 11.40 g respectively) were recorded in same treatment at 150 DAG. Whereas the maximum leaf area (41.77 cm²) at 150 DAG was recorded in treatment (T₈) GA₃ 150 ppm + Biomix 3%.
