ECONOMICS OF PLANT PREPARED THROUGH AIR LAYERS OF GUAVA (PSIDIUM GUAJAVA L).

Abstract

The experiment was conducted in the horticulture garden at Bihar Agricultural college, Sabour in year 2009-2010. The design of experiment was Randomized Block Design with three replications. The experiment comprised of twelve treatments including control. The symbol and treatment detail is are as follows;- T1 – Control, T2- Etiolation, T3 – NAA @ 3000 ppm, T4 – NAA @ 6000 ppm, T5 – NAA @ 3000 ppm + etiolation, T6 – IBA @ 3000 ppm, T7 – IBA @ 6000 ppm, T8 – IBA @ 3000 ppm + etiolation, T9 – NAA @ 3000 ppm + IBA @ 3000 ppm, T10 – NAA @ 3000 ppm + IBA @ 6000 ppm, T11- NAA @ 6000 ppm + IBA @ 3000 ppm and T12 – NAA @ 6000 ppm + IBA @ 6000 ppm. Maximum success (94.66 %) was obtained with etiolation followed by application of IBA @ 3000 ppm concentration, which was statistically at par with T5 (91.33 %) and T7 (88.33 %). Whereas, control i.e., T1 showed 54.33 per cent rooting in air-layers. The best treatment in respect of survivability was T8 (etiolation + IBA @ 3000 ppm) which showed maximum survival (78.33 %). Next effective treatment was T5 (etiolation + NAA @ 3000 ppm) with 75.90 per cent survival of air-layers in nursery.
