The influence of foliar applied plant growth regulators on rice crop was conducted on hybrid rice crop during kharif season’s 2015 and 2016. Application of five growth regulators each in two concentration viz., GA3 20 and 40 ppm, IAA 25 and 50 ppm, NAA 10 and 20 ppm, Triacontanol 5 and 10 ppm, Cycocel 3000 and 4000 ppm and one unsprayed control with foliar sprays at tillering and flowering stages for growth, yield parameters. The observation was recorded at different stages of crop. Higher concentration of IAA produce maximum dry biomass, increased the total leaf area plant-1 , total number of leaves at different crop growth stages, CCC delayed flowering and maturity, IAA produced higher nitrogen content in straw (%) and grain yield plant-1 (g) over control (T1). | Impact of plant growth regulators on growth, phenology and yield characters of hybrid rice
