Abstract:

The experiment was laid out in the year 2019-2020 at Bihar Agricultural University, Sabour to show the application of different doses of methyl jasmonate on growth and flowering behavior of strawberry cv. Nabila. The plant under treatment T3 (0.6 mM) was found the tallest (21.25 cm), highest leaf area (33.59 cm2), The relative water content in the leaves (55.62%), maximum number of leaves (28.33 per plant) while the all above parameters recorded minimum value under control. Similarly, the highest no. of flowers per plant (37.65 flowers) was found under treatment T3 whereas lowest number under T1 (25.67 flowers). The least no. of days (56.24 days) were found for first flowering under treatment T3 while the plants under T1 required the most days (57.27 days). The plants under T1 took the longest (64.50 days) for their first fruit setting while the T3 took the shortest (60.21 days). Longest harvesting period was found under plants of T3 (80.50 days) while the shortest duration under T1 (60.30 days).
