Abstract | ||
:Euphorbia miliiplants were treated with different concentrations (0, 500 or 1000 mg/l) of GA3 and/or complete fertilizer (Solufert) at 0, 3 or 6 g/l as foliar application to investigate the impact of these treatments on some plant growth characters viz.; number of branches/plant, main stem length (cm), fresh and dry weights of main stem (g), number of leaves/branch, fresh and dry weights of leaves/plant (g), number of flowers/plant, the tallest root length (cm), number of roots/plant as well as fresh and dry weights of roots/plant (g). Results indicated that spraying plants with the combinations of 6 g/l Solufert + 500 mg/l of GA3 or 3 g/l Solufert + 1000 mg/l of GA3 gave the maximum values of most abovementioned growth traits | ||
