Influence of growth regulating chemicals on growth and flowering in Jasmine (Jasminum sambac.Ait.)

Jasmine is an important commercial flower crop in Tamil Nadu. The crop has a main flowering season during March to October and an off-season from November to February. During this off-season, flowering is very poor or there is no flowering in many growing areas. In recent years, growth regulators ar...
