Not AvailableA study was undertaken to investigate the possible effects of different chemicals (Nitrobenzene (NB) @ 1.0 ml
plant-1, NB @ 1.5 ml plant-1, NB @ 2.0 ml plant-1, Cycocel (CCC) @ 500 ppm plant-1, CCC @ 1000 ppm plant-1, CCC @
1500 ppm plant-1, Uracil @ 25 ppm plant-1, Uracil @ 50 ppm plant-1, CCC @ 1000 ppm plant-1 + Uracil @ 25 ppm plant-
1, CCC @ 1500 ppm plant-1+ Uracil @ 50 ppm plant-1) on fruiting, fruit quality characteristics concomitant with
anthocyanin content in pomegranate cv Bhagwa during the years 2016 – 17 at ICAR – IIHR, Hesaraghatta. The results
showed that the fruits with highest weight (197.55 g), length (6.64 cm), total aril weight (113.63 g), percentage of aril
weight (62.11 %), 100 aril weight (27.18 g), juice weight (101.94 g) and percentage (51.19 %) accompanied with highest
anthocyanin content (6.647 mg 100g-1) were obtained with application of CCC @ 1000 ppm plant-1 in combination with
Uracil @ 25 ppm. Highest fruit diameter (6.90 cm), TSS content (19.96 0B), TSS to acid ratio (46.68) and less titrable
acidity (0.41 %) were apparent with foliar spray of Cycocel @ 1500 ppm plant-1, while its application @ 1000 ppm has
resulted in highest fruit volume (162.70 ml).Not Availabl

Not AvailableTo realize the productivity potential of pomegranate cv. Bhagwa, studies were conducted
on the effects of chemicals Nitrobenzene (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 ml plant-1), Cycocel (500, 1000
and 1500 ppm plant-1) and Uracil (25 and 50 ppm plant-1) on flowering behavior and fruit
yield during the years 2016-17. Highest number of hermaphrodite flowers (264.66), fruit
yield (27.10 kg tree-1 and 18.86 t ha-1) and fruit number tree-1 (154) were realized with
application of uracil @ 50 ppm. However, the uracil treatment did not influence
significantly the number of male and intermediate flowers. Application of Cycocel @ 1000
ppm in combination with Uracil @ 25 ppm plant-1 has recorded highest fruit weight
(197.55g). At flowering stage, the gas exchange parameters like the photosynthetic rate
(16.48 μmol m-2 s-1) was higher in plants treated with Uracil @ 50 ppm while transpiration
rate was higher (7.72 mmol m-2 s-1) with uracil @ 25 ppm. Higher stomatal conductance
(0.44 mol m-2 s-1) was recorded under nitrobenzene @ 1.5ml plant-1 treatment. During fruit
set stage, photosynthetic rate was high (12.55 μmol m-2 s-1) in plants treated with
nitrobenzene @ 1.5 ml plant-1 whereas, transpiration rate (6.19 mmol m-2 s-1) and stomatal
conductance (0.18 mol m-2 s-1) were higher in plants treated with Cycocel @ 1000 ppm +
Uracil @ 25 ppm plant-1. Thus Uracil @ 50 ppm alone seems to be effective in enhancing
fruit yield and the beneficial effects were associated following increases in gas exchange
parameters and bisexual flowers.Not Availabl
