Abstract
A study on the effect of growth regulators on morphological parameters, phenology and yield of muskmelon under graded levels of moisture stress condition was carried out at College of Horticulture, Anantharajupeta. The experiment was laid out in two factorial completely randomized block design replicated thrice. Factor 1 comprised of three moisture stress levels imposed at 50 % flowering stage, T1- 0 days water stress, T2 - 7 days water stress and T3 - 14 days water stress and Factor 2comprised of three foliar sprays, S1- water spray (Control), S2 – Gibberellic acid (50 ppm), S3 – Salicylic acid (0.5 mM). The results indicated that among the moisture stress levels, the morphological parameters and yield attributes were superior in plants not subjected to water stress. Among the foliar sprays tried, SA (0.5 mM) and GA3 (50 ppm) improved the morphological and yield attributes compared to water spray. Under stress condition, the exogenous application of gibberellic acid @ 50 ppm and salicylic acid @ 0.5 mM was effective in mitigating the deleterious effect of drought stress in muskmelon.
