Abstract

A significant increase in chlorophyll content was noticed due to the application of paclobutrazol to the soil, followed by PBZ bark painting. Application of PBZ to the soil and root pruning significantly recorded highest C: N ratio. PBZ bark painting recorded highest photosynthetic rate at 30 days before flowering. Sea water spray recorded maximum stomatal conductance
