The origin of fractional charge of a quark is investigated considering the fractal structure of a hadron. Hadron is suggested to be a fractal object with fractal dimension 9/2. Describing quark as a quasiparticle in an analogy with quasi particle in Fractional Quantum Hall Effect, the filling factors are extracted which show large fractional plateau. It is suggested that quarks behave like quasi particles and the fractional charges of quarks can be attributed to the fractal behavior of a hadron.

A review is given of recent experiments on the fractional quantum Hall effect. The emphasis is placed on the quasi-particle energy gap data, which provide a first quantitative test of theory, and on the observation of an even denominator fraction.
