Popis: In field trials over years on Rosa damascena Mill, foliar application of kinetin (20 mg/L) significantly increased number of flowers per plant, flower and oil yield. However, effect of kinetin on flower weight was not significant, while on oil content it was significant during 1991 but not in 1992. The effect of kinetin on flower and oil yield was more pronounced during “off season. Kinetin application also increased citronellol + geranyl acetate level in the oil by 13% and 24% over control by 20 mg/L concentration application in both the years respectively.
