“…Improving photosynthetic efficiency due to gibberellic acid solution application is also in conformity with the findings of Iqbal et al (2011). Improvement in cane thickness due to gibberllic acid solution application in this case also confirms with the findings of El-lattief and Bekheet (2012).Weight of cane is decided by both length and girth of the cane. Individual cane weight (1.64 kg) was the highest in the treatment involving overnight soaking of ethrel solution @ 100 ppm followed by GA 3 spray @ 35 ppm at 90,120 and 150 DAP.…”

A field experiment was carried out for three crop seasons at Sugarcane Research Station, Nayagarh (Odisha) during spring seasons of 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18 to assess the effect of ethrel and gibberellic acid on growth, yield attributing characters, yield and quality of sugarcane (Saccharum sp. complex). Pooled data of three years study indicated that different treatments with plant growth regulators had significant effect on growth, yield and quality parameters of sugarcane. Germination percent of cane buds was the highest in the treatment involving planting of sugarcane setts after overnight soaking in 100 ppm ethrel solution followed by foliar application of gibberellic acid @35 ppm at 90,120 and 150 days after planting (DAP). Other sugarcane growth parameters, viz. number of tillers and plant heights were significantly higher with the application of growth regulators which produced higher number of millable canes (at harvest) than that of other treatments in the test. Overnight soaking of cane setts in 100 ppm ethrel solution followed by foliar application of gibberellic acid @35 ppm at 90,120 and 150 days after planting also produced significantly higher yield parameters, viz. number of millable cane (84.26’ 000 ha-1), cane length (313.6 cm), cane girth (2.94 cm) and single cane weight (1.64 kg) as compared to conventionally planted sugarcane crop. There was no significant influence on juice quality parameters due to various treatments in this study. However, overnight soaking of setts with 100 ppm ethrel solution followed by foliar application of gibberellic acid @ 35 ppm at 90, 120 and 150 days after planting showed comparatively higher values in all the juice quality parameters. Significantly higher cane and sugar yields of 116.14 t/ha and 12.82 t/ha, respectively were obtained with planting of sugarcane after overnight soaking in 100 ppm ethrel solution followed by gibberellic acid spray @ 35 ppm at 90, 120 and 150 days after planting. The above higher yields were attributed mainly to marked improvement in growth and yield attributes in response to application of plant growth regulators. Therefore, it can be concluded that combined application of ethrel and gibberellic acid had the positive effect to improve the growth parameters, yield and quality of sugarcane.

“…Plant growth promoters might enhance the activity of acid invertase and ATPase, which convert the sugar into reducing form, which is direct source of food that leaded to taller plants than control (Table 3). In our experiment, budchips soaking in PGPs improved sprouting establishment (Table 3), which might increase reducing sugars as a results of acid invertase enzymes in sprouted buds that leads to promote cell division, growth, differentiation and production of sucrose in budding meristem of sugarcane (Abd El-Lattief andBekheet, 2012 andRehman et al, 2021). The result reveals that soaking of budchip with PGPs can be useful in improving sprouting establishment that resulted in more stem diameter, tillers and stripped cane yield (Table 3).…”

One of the alternative ways of sugarcane sett planting is to sow excised sugarcane buds, popularly called as budchips. Despite the advantages of budchip technology, sugarcane growers are failed to achived higher production under field conditions due to rapid exhaustion of small sized storage tissue (budchip). Evaluate the role of varied concentrations of nephtahline acetic acid and calcium chloride on growth, production and quality of budships in semi-arid condition during two consecutive spring seasons of 2018 and 2019. Results from both years 2018 and 2019, showed that significantly (P ≤ 0.05) improved in sprouting establishment (86%), leaf area index (11.98 and 11.96), leaf area duration (1272 and 1293 days), crop growth rate (11.58 and 11.02 g m-2 day-1), net assimilation rate (2.53 and 2.55 g m-2 day-1), cane height (203 and 224 cm), number of tillers m-2 (27 and 26), cane diameter (2.97 and 3.01 cm), stripped cane yield (101.98 and 98.52 t ha-1), commercial can sugar (14.45 and 14.39%), sugar yield (16.77 and 16.75 t ha-1) were recorded in budchips soaked with CaCl2 2% + NAA 2 ppm. In above studied traits, significantly (P ≤ 0.05) minimum was recorded in budchips soaked with CaCl2 0% + NAA 0 ppm (control). On the basis of above results, it might be recommended to farmers who want to adopt this budchip technology should soaked budchips within 2% solution of CaCl2 with 2 ppm NAA that was suitable for improving growth, yield and quality of sugarcane budchip.

A field experiment was conducted during spring 2015-16 at Pantnagar, Uttarakhand with the objective to study the effect of ethephon and gibberellic acid on tiler dynamics, millble cane production and yield of sugarcane. Ten treatments i.e. conventional planting (T 1), overnight soaking of setts in water (T 2), overnight soaking of setts in 50 ppm ethephon (T 3), overnight soaking of setts in 100 ppm ethephon (T 4), T 1 +foliar application of GA 3 @ 35 ppm at 90, 120 and 150 DAP (T 5), T 2 +foliar application of GA 3 @ 35 ppm at 90, 120 and 150 DAP (T 6), T 3 +foliar application of GA 3 @ 35 ppm at 90, 120 and 150 DAP (T 7), T 4 +foliar application of GA 3 @ 35 ppm at 90, 120 and 150 DAP (T 8), soaking of setts for six hours in 50 ppm ethephon (T 9) and six hour soaking of setts in 100 ppm ethephon (T 10) were laid down in a randomized block design with 3 replication. Soil of the experiment plot was silty clay loam having high organic carbon (1.04%), high available phosphorus (32.5 kg ha-1), medium in available potassium (256.2 kg ha-1) and low in available nitrogen (233.4 kg ha-1). The soil was neutral in pH (7.2). The treatment in which setts were planted after overnight soaking with 100 ppm ethephon followed by foliar application of gibberellic acid @ 35 ppm at 90, 120 and 150 DAP was found to improve tiller production, number of millable canes and yield of the crop.
