The growth and flowering of ‘Rupert’ and ‘Ronina’ lachenalia (Lachenalia) in a greenhouse environment were manipulated by varying planting times and flurprimidol treatments. Bulbs were planted in November, December, January, and February. At each planting date, the following flurprimidol treatments were tested: soaking the bulbs before planting (15 and 30 mg·L−1) or a single foliar spray (15, 30, 45, and 60 mg·L−1). The results showed that foliar application of flurprimidol was ineffective in controlling inflorescence stem height and inflorescence length; only soaking bulbs of ‘Rupert’ in flurprimidol at the concentration of 30 mg·L−1 shortened the inflorescence stem height. Moreover, soaking bulbs in the concentration of 30 mg·L−1 may be recommended for potted lachenalia production, as shorter and wider leaves were obtained and every planted bulb emerged and flowered. The later the date of planting of the bulbs, the more quickly the plants began to flower. As planting time was delayed, inflorescence stem length and leaf length decreased, and the number of florets and leaf width increased. Soaking the bulbs in the retardant (30 mg·L−1) delayed the emergence of flowers for 5–6 days, but the retardant did not affect the number of leaves or the number of florets per inflorescence. Regardless of the factors applied, the two cultivars of lachenalia differed with respect to each of the analyzed traits.

SUMMARYField experiments were carried out at Ludhiana in Punjab during 1982 and 1983 on the effect of foliar application of water spray or naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) at 100 and 200 mg/1 of water on the growth and yield of rice when applied at tillering and before panicle emergence stages of late-transplanted paddy grown under four levels of nitrogen (0, 60, 90 and 120 kg/ha). Foliar spray of NAA significantly increased the grain yield of paddy as compared with water spray under low levels of nitrogen (0 and 60 kg/ha) owing to increases in the number of ear-bearing shoots per plant, number of filled grains per panicle and grain weight. Chlorophyll content of leaves, leaf area index and interception of photosynthetically active radiation by the crop canopy also increased with foliar spray of NAA and application of nitrogen. Paddy responded significantly up to 90 kg N/ha in terms of grain yield whereas straw yield increased significantly up to 120 kg N/ha. However, grain mass declined significantly with increase in nitrogen from 90 to 120 kg/ha.

The experiment to determine the effects of KNO3 and urea in manipulating the harvesting time and increasing yield as well as quality of nine years old mango (Mangifera indica L.) cv. Amrapali plants was carried out at the BAU Germplasm Centre, Department of Horticulture, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during the period from September 2006 to July 2007. The five treatments included in the experiment were potassium nitrate at 4%, 6% and 8%; urea at 2% and 4% and the control (water spray). Foliar spraying of urea at 4% exhibited better performance in relation to terminal shoot length, number of leaves and leaf area and potassium nitrate at 4% gave superior results with respect to length and breadth of panicle and number of secondary branches per panicle compared to control. The plants sprayed with KNO3 at 4% expressed earlier panicle appearance by 17 days as compared to delayed appearance of panicle in untreated control plants. The plants received KNO3 at 4% produced the highest number of panicles per plant (220.67) whereas the control plants had the least number of panicles (107.67). Regardless of concentration, KNO3 and urea manifested slightly earlier harvest (5 days) compared to control. Plants treated with KNO3 at 4% noted the highest number of fruits per plant (136.67) compared to control (62.67). The treatment urea at 4% resulted in the biggest fruit (202.83g) and the control plants exhibited the smallest fruit (175.00g). Potassium nitrate at 4% gave maximum yield (23.14 kg/plant) as compared to minimum yield (9.12 kg/plant) in the control (water spray). Bangladesh J. Agril.
