| Abstract | ||
| An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of three biofertilizers (Azotobacter), Azospirillum, Glomus mosseae and their interaction on growth, fruit yield and quality of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus.L.) cv. Mahi-45 in the Department of Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture Technology and Science, Allahabad, India during the summer season 2013. Eight treatments were included in the trial viz; T1 (Control); T2 (Azotobacter); T3 (Azospirillum); T4 Mycorrhizae (Glomus mosseae); T5 (Azotobacter + Azospirillum); T6 (Azotobacter + Glomus mosseae); T7 (Azospirillum+ Glomus mosseae) and T8 (Azotobacter + Azospirillum+ Glomus mosseae) were tested in three replication. The experiment design was randomized complete block design. This study showed all biofertilizers treatments and their interaction significant effect in plant height (cm), number of branches per plant, number of leaves per plant, fruit length (cm), fruit diameter (cm), number of fruits per plant, fruit yield per plant (g) and fruit yield (t/ha) compare with control treatment. Also this study showed that the treatment (T8) significant effect on all parameters which study where recorded (150 cm), (4.33), (35), (13.25 cm), (1.85 cm), (33), (487.28 g) and (14.66 t/ha) respectively. | ||
