A field experiment was carried out during rabi seasons of 2016-17 and 2017-18 at Agronomy Farm, S.K.N. Agriculture University, Jobner, Jaipur, Rajasthan, to obtain a suitable combination of sowing at different thermal regimes and foliar sprays of bio-regulators. The experiment was conducted in a split-plot design with four replications. The main plot treatments comprised three sowings, viz. 22 ºC, 20 ºC and 18 ºC and subplots consisted of eight treatments of bio-regulators, viz. control, water spray, SA @ 100 ppm, SA @ 200 ppm, TSA @ 100 ppm, TSA @ 200 ppm, TGA @ 100 ppm and TGA @ 200 ppm. Crop sown at 20 ºC resulted in significantly highest yield and nutrient content over 22 ºC and 18 ºC. Among bio-regulators, an application of salicylic acid @ 200 ppm registered significantly highest yield and nutrient content in grain and straw of wheat, thus, hold a great promise in wheat production under heat stress.
