Type: article
Abstract: The study conducted to know the effect of different chemicals on success of cuttings in passion fruit was carried out at Instructional-cum Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, Badnapur during the year 2015-2016. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with thirteen treatments replicated thrice, comprising each three treatments of IBA, NAA, Salicylic acid, Ethanol and control. The results of the investigation revealed that, there were significant variations in differences with shoot and root growth observations viz. dry weight of shoot (1.27g), length of root (12.75 cm), diameter of root (1.00 mm) superior in treatment T1 (IBA 500 ppm) and dry weight of root (0.44g) in treatment T2 (IBA 750 ppm). However, in treatment T3 (IBA 1000 ppm) fresh weight of shoot (3.84 g), dry weight of shoot(1.41g), fresh weight of root (0.86 g) was observed significantly better.
