Abstract:
The experiment was conducted at the research field of Sher-e-Bangla
Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from April to June, 2017 to
study the effect of benzyleaminopurine (BAP) and PK on growth and yield of
summer mungbean (BARI mung-6). In this experiment, the treatment consisted
of four doses of BAP viz. B

= 20 ppm BAP, B
= 40 ppm
BAP and B
= 60 ppm BAP and three different doses of PK viz.

=Recommended dose of N+ 150% recommended
dose of PK. The experiment was laid out in a two factors randomized complete
block design (RCBD) with three replications. Data on different growth
parameters and yield contributing characters of mungbean were recorded. The
collected data were statistically analyzed for evaluation of the treatment effect.
A significant variation among the treatment was found while different
concentration of BAP and PK were applied. The maximum plant height was
recorded with the dose of 20 ppm BAP. The maximum leaf length and leaf
breadth were recorded with the dose of 20 ppm BAP. Among the different
doses, 20 ppm BAP ha
-1
showed the highest number of pods plant
. The
maximum seeds pod
-1
, thousand seed weight (56.56 g) were recorded from 20
ppm BAP. The 20 ppm BAP was observed in the highest seed yield of 1.00 t
ha
-1
. The maximum plant height was observed from recommended dose of N+
125% recommended dose of PK treatment. The highest leaf length and leaf
breadth were recorded from recommended dose of N+ 125% recommended
dose of PK treatment. The maximum number of pods plant
-1
was recorded from
recommended dose of N+ 125% recommended dose of PK. Recommended
dose of N+ 125% recommended dose of PK showed the highest number of
seeds pod
-1
, weight of 1000 seed. The highest seed yield (1.00 t ha
) was
recorded from recommended dose of N+ 125% recommended dose of PK. The
highest seed yield 1.13 t ha
-1
was obtained from 20 ppm BAP and
recommended dose of N+ 125% recommended dose of PK.
