Abstract:
The present investigation entitled “Standardization of different concentrations of plant growth regulators and levels of nitrogen, phosphorus on growth, flowering, yield and quality of China Aster (Callistephus chinensis (L.)Nees) under Chhattisgarh conditions” was conducted at the Horticultural Research cum Instructional Farm, Department of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture, College of Agriculture, IGKV, Raipur (C.G.).The Experiment-I entitled “Effect on different concentrations of plant growth regulators on growth, flowering, yield and quality of China Aster” was conducted during winter season of 2018-19 and 2019-20. The experimental field was laid out in (Factorial Randomized Block Design) (FRBD) with 3 replications. There were 14 treatment combinations of two varieties viz. Arka Shashank and Arka Archana as factor A and three plant growth regulators with two doses each i.e, Cycocel @ 1500, 1000 ppm, NAA @ 50, 100 ppm and GA3 @150, 200 along with water spray (control) as factor B.
Under transitional Chhattisgarh plains, there is a need to standardize production technology involving systematic research to evaluate acceptable variety and to evaluate the effect of plant growth regulators on growth, flowering, yield and quality of China aster flower production under the Chhattisgarh plains.
The result were indicated that China aster cv. Arka Archana performed superior as compare to Arka Shashank and the treatment P6 (GA3 @ 200 ppm) performed significantly better in growth characters viz. plant height(cm), plant spread (cm), maximum number of primary and secondary branches plant-1, number of leaves /plant, leaf area and leaf area index.
