Abstract
The results of effect of plant bio-regulators on yield and yield attributing characters of strawberry CV. Chandler showed that at 75 DAT the plant height attained maximum of 20.50 cm, spread (25.53 cm) leaf number per plant (23.00), petiole length (0.20 cm), leaf area (136.30 cm2) and yield (356.56 g/plant) respectively, of strawberry was obtained highest with the application of GA 75 mg/L while, cycocel 750 mg/lresulted in minimum days taken to first flowering (61.66 DAT) and fruit formation (66.66 DAT). The maximum number of flowers per plant were recorded as 30.22 and number of berries (24.80) with application of GA 75 mg/L. Key words: Chandler, Fragaria x ananassa, bio-regulators, physico-chemical, yield.
Highlights
The cultivated octaploid strawberry (Fragaria x ananassaDuch.) belongs to family Rosaceae and it is one of the most delicious, refreshing and nutritious among soft fruits of the world
A key point in fruit production is the manipulation of flowering to fruit production and to increase the productivity of the crops
It is imperative to assess the effect of plant bio-regulators which modifies various physiological processes with the advantage to increase strawberry production
