Effect of Pre-soaking seeds with Plant Growth Regulators and Nutrient Solution on Dry Matter Production of Rice

Abstract

Pre-sowing treatment of seeds with plant growth regulators and nutrient solutions has been found to be effective in increasing germination of seeds, vegetative growth of plants and their yield (Mitchel, 1951; Garg, 1959 and Vaish, 1966). The experimental results of Dastur and Bhat (1955) and Mukherjee and Kumar (1956) which revealed that dry matter content in plant was also affected by these substances led to the planning of the present investigation.
