Effect of micronutrients (Zinc and boron ) on growth and yield of grapes (Vitis vinifera L.) cv. Muscat

Abstract

An experiment was conducted with grapes (Vitis vinifera L.) ev. Muscat at Mathampatti, Coimbatore during 2000, to find out the effect of micronutrients namely Zn and B applied either individually or in combination through soil or foliage on the growth and yield characters of grapes. The results revealed that foliar application of ZnSO, 0.5 per cent + borax 0.2 per cent combination excelled others in increasing the shoot length, number of internodes shoot, number of leaves shoot and yield.
