Influence of plant growth regulators on the vegetative development of leguminous crops

Vigna unguiculata and V. radiata were exogenously treated with varying concentrations of indole-acetic acid, a cytokinin, and gibberellic acid. The phytohormone treatments were applied apically at the rate of 0.05 ml per plant for all treatments. Cytokinin and gibberellic treatments were ineffective...

Summary:Vigna unguiculata and V. radiata were exogenously treated with varying concentrations of indole-acetic acid, a cytokinin, and gibberellic acid. The phytohormone treatments were applied apically at the rate of 0.05 ml per plant for all treatments. Cytokinin and gibberellic treatments were ineffective in increasing soluble protein levels. However, auxin-treated plants showed significant increase in chlorophyll levels at 1.0 microgram. Kinetin generally maintained chlorophyll levels consistent with the control. GA decreased total chlorophyll levels regardless of concentration
