Floral Biology and Fruit Set of Mango (Mangifera indica L.) as Influenced by Different Chemicals

Abstract

Satna (M.P.) India, during 2016-17 and 2017-18 to study the response of different mango cultivars viz. Bombay Green, Dashehari and Langra to various chemicals namely potassium nitrate, potassium di-hydrogen orthophosphate, di-potassium hydrogen orthophosphate. The results of the experiment revealed that the per cent of bud swelling, panicle emergence and flowering shoot and length of panicle were higher with application of KH 2 PO 4 -1%+KNO 3 -1%. In case of cultivars, mango cv. Langra produced lengthier panicle than Bombay Green and Dashehari in both treated and untreated trees. Significantly narrowest sex ratio and higher number of hermaphrodite flowers, fruit set, fruit retention per panicle and number of fruits per tree were recorded with application of KH 2 PO 4 -1%+KNO 3 -1% treatment. In case of mango cultivars the narrowest sex ratio and higher number of hermaphrodite flowers, fruit set per panicle and number of fruit per tree were observed with Langra.

Antidiabetogenic action of jamun syzygium cumini skeels: a review

“…[10][11][12] It is also cultivated in West Indies, Israel, California, and Algeria. 13 Jamun becomes a fully grown tree in 40 years and become usually 100 feet (30 m) tall. Jamun canopy expands up to 36 feet (11m) and its trunk diameter reaches up to 2-3 feet (0.6-0.9 m) (Figure 1).…”

“…Initially, the flowers are greenish-white that turn rose pink eventually. [11][12][13][14] The Jamun starts fruiting in clusters of a few to 10 or even 40 during summer, which becomes fully ripened in June-July. The fruits of Jamun are oblong or round and their size varies between 1/2 to 2 inches (1.2 to 5cm).…”

“…The fruits are green initially and turn light to dark purple or even black colored (Figure 5) after ripening. [10][11][12][13][14][15] Jamun fruits are sweetish sour and the tongue becomes purple after eating Jamun. The seeds of Jamun are oblong, whitish purple colored that becomes brown once dried (Figure 6).…”

Effect of Potassium Nitrate Spray on the Flowering and Fruiting of Mango Varieties Grown in Uganda

“…A study by Singh et al [21] showed that spraying mango cultivars Bombay Green, Dashehari and Langra with a combination of 1% KNO 3 and 1% KH 2 PO 4 was excellent over other combinations of chemicals in improving the number of fruits set and fruits retained per tree when compared with the control where the trees were sprayed with water only. Experimental results of another study by Parauha and Pandey [8] indicated that foliar spray of 2% KNO 3 + 30 ppm gibberellic acid on the cultivar Amrapali gave better performance in fruit yield (14.70 kg/tree) than the control (7.91 kg/tree).…”
