Effect of plant growth regulators on the petiole length of anthurium
The effect of plant growth regulators on the petiole length of anthurium were
found to be statistically significant in the 1 st , 3 rd , 4 th , 9 th -12 th and 14 th months of
cultivation but the results of the rest months were found statistically non-significant
(Table 4).
