Foliar application of nutrient on the seed yield and quality characters of nonaged and aged seeds of cotton CV.MCU 5

Abstract

Seed cotton yield and seed yield were improved by DAP 2% foliar spray twice at 75 and 90 days after sowing. The per cent germination and root length of resultant seeds was also increased by DAP 2% spray. But boron 0.5% increased the shoot length of resultant seeds. The response of the resultant seed in stroage through accelerated ageing was also found to be similar. Where, the germination improvement was upto 15.5% in DAP spray seeds than control seeds.

Keywords: MCU 5, Nutrient spray, Ageing. Seed cotton yield, Seed yield and Quality characters
