INFLUENCE OF BIO-REGULATORS ON BIOMASS PRODUCTION IN MULBERRY (Morus alba)

Abstract

                                Foliar application of bioregulators. viz 2-3-4- dichlorophenoxy triethylamine, (DCPTA) (Photosynthogen), mixtalol (Paras) and triacontanol (Vipul) on the fresh leaf biomass production in mulbery (Var.Kanva -2) was assessed. The study revealed that photosynthogen at 25 gai/ha.. significantly increased the leaf number, leaf area and fresh leaf biomass than paras or vipul. The increased leaf biomass in mulberry due to photosynthogen spray was by high source activity as evidenced by high chlorophyll and high soluble protein content.

Key words : Mulberry, Photosynthogen, leaf biomass
