Experiment shows salicylic acid improves physiological and quality traits in potted syngonium, indicating its effectiveness for optimal growth.
The experiment was done under a 50% shade net during 2023-24 and 2024-25 at College of Horticulture, Rajendranagar, SKLTGHU. The experiment was laid out in completely randomized design with three replicates, The results showed that during 2023-24, 2024-25 and pooled, the physiological parameters viz., maximum leaf area index (2.28, 2.28, 2.28), specific leaf weight (g/cm2) (0.005, 0.005, 0.005) was recorded in T4: Salicylic acid 200 ppm whereas the minimum specific leaf area (cm2/g) (186.88, 200.05, 192.91) was recorded in T4: Salicylic acid 200 ppm. In case of quality parameters the highest visual plant grade (4.80, 4.73, 4.77) and visual colour grade (4.60, 4.47, 4.53) was recorded in T4: Salicylic acid 200 ppm, whereas the highest chlorophyll content (43.33, 42.64, 42.98) was recorded in T1: Benzyladenine 150 ppm.
