Overview

Randomized trial improved sprouting rates in Solanum tuberosum with higher gibberellic acid concentrations, suggesting effective dormancy-breaking methods.

Key Points

  • The treatment with 150 ppm GA₃ and 24-hour exposure achieved a sprouting rate of 98.33%.
  • Optimal results included the highest number of sprouts (5.63), with significant increases in sprout length and diameter.
  • The study employed a Randomized Complete Block Design to assess the effects of GA₃ concentrations and exposure times.
  • These findings highlight the potential for high-concentration GA₃ use in breaking dormancy and sprouting enhancement, indicating a need for further field evaluations.
