Exogenous gibberellic acid does not induce early flowering in mungbeans [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek.]

Abstract: Gibberellic acid (GA) is an important phyto-hormone mediating plant growth. In present study, we evaluated the impact of GA treatment on morphological, phenological and molecular aspects of five mungbean genotypes. GA treatment caused a significant increase in plant height and branch angle in most of the genotypes. However, there was no impact of GA treatment on days to first anthesis, days to 50% flowering and pod length. Genotypes SML-859 and EC-48 revealed no change in their plant height and branch angle re… Show more

“…The possible reason of increased plant height could be ascribed to the favorable effects of GA 3 on the physiological processes inducing cell division, increasing cell elongation, and enlargement or both due to higher RWC (Table 3) and photosynthetic pigments (Table 4). Our result is also in agreement with the findings of Hoque and Haque (2002), Abdel and Al-Rawi (2011), Keykha et al (2014) and Raina et al (2018) in V. radiata, Iqbal et al (2001) in chickpea, Emongor (2007) in cowpea, Pandey et al (2004) in pea, Deotale et al (1998) in soybean, and Kumar et al (2014) in tomato. The increase in plant height due to GA 3 application might be had an effect on the elongation of internodes (Krishnamoorthy, 1981).…”

“…Early flowering or maturity (EF/EM) is the most critical phenological trait/mechanism exploited by breeders for the development of short-duration varieties which can escape abiotic stresses, particularly droughts and heat stress. Early flowering and seed set before an upcoming drought event are important in legumes [ 330 ] and cereals [ 298 ]. This trait is controlled by three groups of genes, vernalization ( Vrn ), photoperiod ( Ppd ), and earliness per se ( Eps ), and the genetics of these traits have been studied extensively, particularly in cereals [ 331 , 332 , 333 , 334 ].…”

“…However, its large-scale adoption is constrained by yield losses in areas exposed to various biotic and abiotic factors. Abiotic stress factors like heat, cold, drought, and flooding adversely affect crop productivity worldwide (Raina et al, 2018). Being sessile, plants have developed enormous diversity in their intrinsic factors which facilitate survival in a wide range of environments.…”
