Abstract
Effects of pruning intensity and spray of plant growth regulators (PGR) on dfferent parameters of Guava (Psidium Guajava L.) Sardar were investigated. Growth, quality and yield attributing characters were improved at 30 cm pruning intensity. With respect to effect of plant growth regulators, application of 600 ppm NAA improved all the characters except minimum number of days taken to flower initiation (39.47), acidity (0.33 %), TSS (12.11 oBrix) and total sugars (6.79 %) which were recorded in 600 ppm ethephon. The interaction studied showed that P3G2 (30 cm pruning + 600 ppm NAA) had recorded the highest value with growth, yield and quality, while the combination of P3G3 (30 cm pruning + 600 ppm ethephon) was good for qualitative parameters.

期刊介绍:
Bangladesh in situated on the north of Bay of Bengal. Climatically it is a humid subtropical country. Most of the land is deltaic plain of two great rivers, the Ganges and the Bhrammaputra and it tributaries. The country has rich diversity of plants. Main crops cultivated are Rice, Jute, Wheat, Maize, Sugarcane, Mustard and different kinds of Lentils. There are a good number of Public and Private Universities and Plant Research Establishments.
Bangladesh Journal of Botany is the official organ of the Bangladesh Botanical Society established in 1972. Since 1972 Bangladesh Journal of Botany is being published regularly. Two issues of the Journal are published, one in June and another in December.
Scientific papers (Full paper and short communication) on any field of Plant Sciences from anywhere in the World are considered for publication in Bangladesh Journal of Botany.
