Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Foliar applications of nutrients and plant growth regulators improved onion seed yield and the number of seed per fruit.
- Intervention effect Seed quality parameters remained stable under foliar applications of nutrients and plant growth regulators.
- Intervention effect Indole-3-butyric acid alone improved onion seed yields compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Indole-3-butyric acid mixed with B and Ca improved onion seed yields by 40–45% for OP and MSL, respectively, compared with the control.
- Recommendation Foliar application of IBA, B and Ca could be effective in improving onion seed yields.
