TY - JOUR AU - S. KAMALAKANNAN, R. SUDHAGAR, PY - Y2 - 2025/09/23 TI - GROWTH RETARDANTS effects ON FLOWERING AND YIELD PARAMETERS OF SPANISH JASMINE (Jasminum grandiflorum L.) JF - Journal of Floriculture and Landscaping JA - JFCLS VL - 3 IS - 1 SE - Research Article DO - 10.25081/jfcls.2017.v3.3452 UR - https://www.updatepublishing.com/journal/index.php/jfcls/article/view/3452 SP - 01-03 AB - <p>An experiment was conducted to study the effect of growth retardants on flowering and yield parameters and shelf life of spanish jasmine. The experiment comprised of eleven treatments each replicated thrice was executed following the principles of randomized block design. The treatments included foliar spray of CCC @ 1000, 1500 and 2000 ppm, alar @ 1000, 2000 and 3000 ppm, ethrel @ 1000, 1500 and 2000 ppm, pruning and untreated control. In this study, the application of CCC 1500 ppm exerted favourable influence and enhanced the flower bud characters <em>viz</em>., flower bud length (2.98 cm), flower stalk length (2.36 cm) and total length of the flower (5.34 cm). The yield and yield attributes <em>viz</em>., hundred flower buds weight (9.90 g), flower buds yield plant<sup>-1 </sup>(4.23 kg), flower buds yield plot<sup>-1 </sup>(33.84 kg) and flower buds yield hectare<sup>-1</sup> (14.1 t ha<sup>-1</sup>) were also found to be the maximum in the plants treated with CCC 1500 ppm. The plant growth retardants did not show any significant effect on shelf life of flowers.</p> ER -
