Abstract | ||
An experiment was conducted during the growing season of 2013 – 2014 at lath house (Saran) that belong to College of Agriculture , University of Basrah to study the effect of planting date , Indole butyric acid (IBA) , and five cultivar of Hyacinthus plant on vegetative growth , flowering and bulblets formation. The experiment was factorial using Randomized Complete Block Design that included three factors, first two plant date (10/10/2013 and 25/10/2013), Second, three methods of IBA 200 mg.L-1 treatment ( control , bulbs soaking , and plant spraying ) and third five hyacinthus cultivars (Amsterdam , Carnegie , Splendid Cornelia , Marie , and Fondant) with three replicates for each treatment and four plants pertepliate. Analysis of variance was used for statistical analysis and means was compared by Revised Least Significant Difference test at 0.05 level. Results can be summarized as follows: Plants of first planting date was superior in plant height, leaf area, root numbers and length. However plants from bulb soaked in IBA at 200 mg .L-1 was superior in leaf area, number of bulbs, bulb dry weigh, length and number of roots. While plants sprayed by IBA (200 mg .L-1) was superior in plant height. Plants of Fondant cultivar were superior in most characteristics of studied plants. While Carnegie cultivar was superior in number of lateral buds and leaf area. There were a significant effect of secondary and tertiary interaction for all studied characteristics. | ||
