Abstract:
The observations were recorded at 45, 55 DAS and at physiological maturity of the crop. Results of field study indicated that, the growth parameters yield attributing traits and quality of green gram were significantly increased due to foliar sprayed of plant growth regulators. The foliar sprayed of salicylic acid 100 ppm was found most effective for increasing the number of branches plant-1 (7.83) viz: number of pod clusters-1 (8.78), number of pods plant-1 (45.44), pod length (8.40 cm), number of seeds pods-1 (9.48), number of seeds plant-1 (431.33), 100 seed weight (4.08g), seed yield plant-1 (17.57g), seed yield q ha-1 (12.24) and harvest index (36.52%) followed by foliar sprayed of GA3 100 ppm over rest of the treatments. However, growth parameter like plant height (66.35 cm) was measured significantly increased due to foliar spared of GA3 100 ppm followed by foliar sprayed of salicylic acid 100 ppm over other treatments including control.
