Abstract:

An experiment was conducted during the year 2019-20 under hydroponic condition at Fruit Science laboratory, Department of Fruit Science, College of Horticulture and Forestry, CAU, Pasighat, Arunachal Pradesh to evaluate the influence of pre-sowing treatments on seedling growth of rough lemon rootstock. The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design with thirteen treatments replicated thrice. The various concentrations of growth regulators and chemicals viz., GA3, NAA, KNO3 and Thiourea were used to treat the seeds of rough lemon and further observation were taken for 90 DAS. The results indicated that the maximum height of seedling (14.35 cm), girth of stem (1.93 mm), length of root (8.57 cm), number of roots/seedling (10.44), number of leaves/seedling (3.66), fresh weight of shoot (0.348 g), dry weight of shoot (0.119 g), fresh weight of roots (0.109 g) and dry weight of roots (0.039 g) were recorded in seeds treated with GA3 150 ppm for 12 hours. Therefore, it can be concluded that the GA3 at 150 ppm was found best for vegetative growth.
