A field experiment was conducted at Floricultural Research Station, Agricultural Research Institute, Rajendranagar, SKLTSHU, Hyderabad during 2019-2020 to study the influence of certain chemicals on flower induction, flowering, quality and yield in Jasmine (Jasminum sambac). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with nine treatments and three replications. Results of the experiment revealed that, the plants treated with 0.5 % Thiourea significantly reduced days taken for flower initiation (27.6 days) and influenced to increase number of cymes per plant (137.6), number of flower buds per cyme (5.0), number of flower buds per plant (688.30), the flower quality parameters like length of flower bud (22.56 mm), length of corolla tube (13.30 mm) and width of flower buds (9.62 mm), were also recorded maximum in 0.5 % thiourea. Weight of 100 flower buds (28.03 g), flower yield per plant (192.90 g), flower yield per month in plot (1.153 kg) and flower yield for three months in plot (2.35 kg) were also found superior in 0.5 % thiourea.
