Abstract

The field experiment was conducted during rabi season in the year 2021-2022 at post graduate Horticulture Experimental farm, Department of Horticulture, Naini Agriculture Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, in order to study the Foliar application of different Plant growth regulators treatments on Strawberry cv. Sweet Charlie. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 10 treatments and 3 replications. Strawberries were treated with (GA3, NAA, Triacontanol) were subjected to growth, yield and quality parameters and showed better results in combination treatment T8(Triacontanol @ 3.25 ppm/l + GA3 @ 100 ppm/l) the treatment whereas minimum was observed in T0(control).

Keywords: Strawberry, plant growth regulators, analysis of variance, mean performance
