Physiological aspects in cotton cultivars in response to application leaf gibberellic acid

Abstract

The cotton plant is a species of the Malvaceae family and is relevant to the Brazilian and world economy, mainly because of the textile fiber. However, there was an increase in cotton production because it is necessary for the use of inputs or stimulants, such as the use of gibberellic acid, which has contributed in improving the physiological processes of plants. The

Responses of Water and Pigments Status, Dry Matter Partitioning, Seed Production, and Traits of Yield and Quality to Foliar Application of GA3 in Mungbean (Vigna radiata L.)

“…However, foliar application of GA 3 at 200 ppm produced the highest amount of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotenoids which were statistically similar to 300 ppm of GA 3 . These results are supported by several studies reporting that GA 3 enhanced the photosynthetic pigments in V. radiata (Mubeen et al, 2014;Baliah et al, 2018;El Karamany et al, 2019) as well as other crops like wheat (Pazuki et al, 2013), cotton (Onanuga et al, 2012;Firmino da Costa et al, 2017), Euphorbia lathyris (Garg and Kumar, 2012), Aloe barbadensis Data are presented as mean ± SE (n = 3).
