The study was conducted to determine the effect of duration of night interruption using incandescent bulbs on sustained quality flower production of potted standard Chrysanthemum cv. Kikiobiory. The different night interruption (NI) treatments i.e. control, <5 sec. flash, 30-, 60-, 90- and 120- min. significantly (p<0.05) affected allthe vegetative and floral parameters. The plant height, number of leaves and root suckers per plant increased with the increase duration of NI treatments with maximum at 120- min. NI (90.42 cm, 34.75 and 12.10, respectively). The days taken to flower bud appearance, colour break stage and full bloom were delayed, whereas flower quality with respect to duration of flowering and flower diameter were deteriorated with increase in duration of NI treatments. The days taken to flower bud appearance, colour break stage and full bloom were highest at 120- min. NI (136.84, 183.22 and 202.25 days, respectively) which delayed the flowering by 63.94 days, where full bloom flower appeared in March. There was reduction in duration of flowering and flower diameter with increased NI duration with lowest at 120 min. NI (7.83 days and 15.69 cm). It was observed that increase (120 min.) in night interruption increased the vegetative growth and delayed the flowering; however, flower quality was deteriorated. Thus, it was concluded that 60 min. NI improved flower quality with sustained flower production in potted Chrysanthemum cv. Kikiobiory.

The endophytic bacteria are bacteria whose life cycle is partially or completely associated in the host plant tissue in various kinds of relationships (symbiosis) that it undergoes. The potential of endophytic bacteria as microbial resources is widely used as a biological control for plants, including as the producer of phytohormones and the agent of biocontrol and biofertilizer. This study aims to test selected endophyte bacterial isolates from chili as a biofertilizer to meet the nutrient requirements that are useful during the vegetative growth period of red chili in Ultisols. The study used a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 3 replications, namely A = fertilizer N  recommendation; B = Azospirillum sp AK+ Fertilizer N recommendation; C = Azospirillum sp BT+ Fertilizer N recommendation; D = Azospirillum sp DN+ fertilizer N recommendation. Azospirillum sp AK and Azospirillum sp DN isolates gave better vegetative growth than those of Azospirillum sp BT isolates with average dry weight, respectively, 19.49 g and 18.93 g and with a height of 29.67 cm and 29.60cm. The superiority of the 2 isolates was also shown in the observation of the number of leaves 30.39 and 22.50 and the number of branches 6.45 and 6.28 respectively for Azospirillum sp AK and Azospirillum sp DN isolates.Key words : Endophytic bacteria, red chili, Ultisols

We recently showed that spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) transplants produced under a short photoperiod and low air temperature were characterized by a delay of bolting and short flower-stalk length at harvest (Chun et al., 2000a). The present study was conducted to determine whether these changes are caused by the short photoperiod itself or by the lower integrated photosynthetic photon flux (IPPF). Shoot and root dry weights of transplants increased significantly with increasing IPPF, but were not affected by a change in the photoperiod. However, the floral development indices of transplants were significantly greater under a 16-than under a 10- or 13-hours/day photoperiod, but were not affected by a change in IPPF. The percentage of bolted plants 3 days after transplanting (DAT) increased significantly with increasing photoperiod (from 0% at 10 hours/day to more than 85% at 16 hours/day). Flower-stalk length increased with increasing photoperiod (e.g., at 14 DAT, from 15 mm at the shorter photoperiods to 80 mm at 16 hours/day), but was not affected by a change in IPPF. These results show that the delay of bolting that occurs when the photoperiod is reduced during transplant production is due to the delay of floral development and not to retarded vegetative growth as a result of reduced IPPF.
