Effect of Plant Growth Regulators on Yield and Quality of Guava (Psidium guajava L.) cv. Allahabad Safeda

Year: 2017

Type: article

Abstract: An experiment was carried out to see the effect of plant growth regulators on yield and quality of guava cv. Allahabad safeda. Low production and poor quality of fruits are major constraints in guava production in Assam. The results showed significance difference among the treatments. The maximum yield (37.13 kg/plant), pulp weight (173 g), Juice content (63.17 cc), TSS (12.50 0Brix), ascorbic acid (135.30 mg/100gm), total sugar (10.13 %), seed weight (6.67 gm), sugar-acid ratio (33.13) and lowest titrable acidity (0.16 %) was recorded under T5 (50 ppm GA3) while maximum pulp-seed ratio was recorded in T6 (100 ppm GA3).
