Summary, etc.	An investigation on the effect of growth regulators on growth and <br/>flowering of Anthurium andreanum Linden was conducted in the Department <br/>of Plant Physiology, College of Agriculture, Vellayani during 1998-2000. <br/>Mature plants of three varieties of Anthurium andreanum Linden <br/>formed the material. The varieties used were Liver Red (L.R.), Ceylon Red <br/>(C.R.) and Kalympong Orange (K.O.). Three growth regulators namely <br/>Gibberellic Acid (GA), Tri Iodo Benzoic Acid (TIBA) and Kinetin (K) were <br/>used at 100 ppm, 300 ppm and 500 ppm concentrations. Two controls i.e., <br/>distilled water spray and no spray were also included. Each concentration of <br/>the growth regulator was sprayed three times at one month intervals. <br/>Observations were taken three months after the first spray and then at three <br/>months intervals, twice more. The effect of treatments on morphological <br/>floral, physiological and bio-chemical aspects was studied. <br/>Results of the experiments revealed that growth regulators had <br/>significant effect on most of the characters under study. They are listed <br/>below. <br/>;.. Maximum plant height was obtained nine months after the first spray <br/>for K.O. treated with GA at 500 ppm (69.82 cm). <br/>;.. Minimum plant spread (EW) - nine months afte~ the first spray was <br/>obtained for K.O. treated with TIBA at 100 ppm (28.44 cm) and <br/>minimum plant spread (NS) was recorded by K.O. - no spray (28.02 <br/>cm) in the ninth month of observation. <br/> <br/><br/>8J <br/> <br/><br/>• <br/><br/> <br/> <br/>~ Maximum number of leaves/spadices per year (9.0) was recorded by <br/>C.R. treated with GA at 300 and 500 ppm. <br/>~ Minimum number of days (40.8) taken for successive leaf production <br/>was obtained for C.R. treated with GA at 300 and 500 ppm. <br/>~ Highest" number of suckers/plant (4.6) was produced by K.O. treated <br/>with GA at 500 ppm, obtained nine months after the first spray. <br/>~ The highest length of spadix (43.52 cm) was showed six months after <br/>the first spray by L.R. treated with GA at 500 ppm. <br/>~ Largest spathe (95.4 cm2) was recorded three months after the first <br/>spray by K.O. treated with GA at 500 ppm. <br/>~ Highest longevity of spadix (103 days) was obtained for L.R. treated <br/>with kinetin at 500 ppm. <br/>~ Smallest candle size was obtained nine months after the first spray by <br/>the variety C.R. treated with TIBA at 500 ppm (4.1 cm). <br/>~ Highest chlorophyll content (2.16 mg/g tissue) was recorded rune <br/>months after the first spray by K.O. treated with GA at 500 ppm. <br/>~ Highest carotenoid content (10.41 mg/lOO g sample) was obtained six <br/>months after the first spray by L.R. treated with GA at 300 ppm. <br/>~ Highest anthocyanin content (388.2 mg/l OOg sample) was recorded six <br/>months after the first spray by L.R. (control 1) distilled water spray. <br/>~ Highest protein content (109 mg/ g tissue) was obtained six months <br/>after the first spray by K.O. treated with kinetin at 500 ppm. <br/>~ Highest phenol content (121.2 mg/g tissue) was recorded three months <br/>after the first spray by K.O. treated with kinetin at 500 ppm. <br/> <br/> <br/>Based on the economics of growth regulator application, G.A. 500 ppm <br/>was the best treatment with positive profit increase in all the three varieties. <br/>This treatment achieved an enhanced profit of Rs. 133.70 per plant per year in <br/>the variety L.R., Rs. 86.30 enhanced profit in K.O. and Rs. 70.10 in the <br/>variety C.R. <br/><br/>
