Author(s): SR Chaudhari and AB Patil
Abstract: The experiment on the influence of plant growth regulators on growth and flowering of rose (Rosa hybrid L,) cv, "Gladiator" was conducted at Floriculture Research Scheme, Regional Horticulture Research Station, ASPEE College of Horticulture and Forestry, Gujarat Agricultural University, Navsari Campus, Navsari 396450 during 2002-2003, The treatments comprised four different concentrations of GA3 (100, 150, 200 and 250 mg/l), BA (50, 100, 150 and 200 mg/I) and ethrel (200, 300, 400 and 500 mg/l) including control. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with thirteen treatments and three replications. Plant height and plant spread was influence with an application of GA3 250 mg/l followed by GA3 200 mg/l while highest number of branches was obtained with ethrel 300 mg/l. Earlier flower bud initiation (21.6 days) was noted in treatment with GA3 150 mg/l while maximum days taken with ethrel 500 mg/l (36.6 days).Largest flower stalk length and flower diameter was noted with treatment GA3 250 mg/l and minimum with control.
