Comparative Effect of Different Concentration of Salicylic Acid and IBA on the Growth, Yield and Quality of Garlic
Keywords:
Indole Butyric Acid, Salicylic AcidAbstract
The present study was conducted to study the effect of salicylic acid and indole butyric acid on growth, yield and quality of garlic. An experiment was conducted at National Tea and High Value Crops Research Institute, Shinkiari. The experiment was laid with both designs RCBD for growth and yield and CRD for quality parameters. Different concentration of indole butyric acid and Salicylic acid were used i.e. 60mg/l, 120mg/l and 180mg/l. In interaction between salicylic acid and indole butyric acid, maximum plant height, No of leaves per plant and leave length (72.42 cm) (10.56) (39.43 cm) was recorded in plants treated with salicylic and indole butyric acid at the rate of 180 mg/l and 90 mg/l respectively whereas minimum plant height (58.34 cm) (5.28) (28.26 cm) was noted in control plot when treated with salicylic acid at the rate of 60 mg/l., maximum bulb weight and bulb diameter (88.78 g) (65.35 mm) was recorded when both indole butyric acid and salicylic acid were applied to the plant at the rate of 90 and 180 mg/l, respectively, whereas minimum bulb weight and Bulb diameter (75.35 g) (55.24 mm) was noted in plants when only salicylic acid is applied at the rate of 60 mg/l. Maximum TSS was recorded in bulb treated with SA. Highest free amino acid was recorded in the garlic treated with IBA. Terpenoids and Flavonoids were found positive in all applied concentration of garlic while Steriods were found negative. Glycosides were found negative in 60mg/l IBA while present in all others. Alkaloids were found negative in all concentration of IBA and 60 mg of SA while present in 120, 180mg/lSA.
