Popis: | The present investigation on effect of media on growth parameters of banana cv. POOVAN was carried out at the Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University during 2014-2016. The experiment was conducted in Completely Randomized Design with 13 treatments in three replications. The treatments consisted of three growing media (FYM, Rice hull, Sawdust), two biofertilizers ( Azospirillum and VAM) with sand alone as control. The results of the study revealed that the pseudostem height, pseudostem girth and number of leaves produced sucker -1 were favourably influenced by the treatment T 7 (FYM + VAM) followed by T 10 (FYM + Rice hull + VAM). Regarding root production, T 8 (Rice hull + VAM) was found to be the best treatment. Further more survival percentage of plants was higher in the treatments in which FYM was used as the regeneration medium along with VAM. |
