Abstract

Highest plant height (111 cm), minimum number of days to 50% flowering (36.6), maximum number of nodes per plant (26.7) more number of fruits per plant (22.6), highest fruit yield per plant (452.4 g), fruit yield per plot (16.1 Kg) and fruit yield per hectare (19.9 q/ha) were observed with the treatment of GA3 50 ppm. All growth regulators and micronutrients increased the yield in comparison to that obtained with control. Among micronutrients, maximum fruit yield was observed with the spray of 0.4%. FeSO4.
