Influence of growth stimulator met on morpho-physiological traits of buckwheat

Abstract

The efficacy of application of MET at different concentrations on some morphological and physiological traits of buckwheat variety Yunchao-5 was studied. The results demonstrated efficacy of MET to reduce plant height and increase stem thickness. The experiments showed that the most efficient action was recorded in the variant with the MET concentration of 200 mg / L, which substantially increased values of such traits as the grain number and 1000 seed weight. A gain in grain yield by 58.9% was also observed.
