 ABSTRACT

This study was conducted at A field experiment was carried out in the research farm of RAK College of Agriculture,  Sehore  (Madhya Pradesh)  during Kharif  2016-17). A field experiment consisting of Plant Growth HormonesCycocel (100, 150 and 200 ppm), GA3 (100, 150 and 200 ppm) and NAA(100 and 150 ppm) and water spray as control to study the effect  of plant growth Hormones on yield viz Number of seed/pods number of pods/plant, number of seed/pods,1000 seed weight, pod weight (g/plant), seed yield (g/plant), seed yield (Kg/ha), herbage yield (g/plant), herbage yield (q/ha) and biochemical constitute viz nitrogen %. protein %, fat %, and fiber % in root and Ash% of plant with Leaf andrographolide content of Kalmegh (Andrographis peniculata Burn F. Ex). at harvesting. Significantly higher Seed yield (531.17 Kg/ha) and  herbage yield (193.23 Q/ha) was observed by treatment GA3 100 ppm at harvesting time as compare to treatment GA3 200 ppm (394.18 Kg/ha) and  Cycocel 200  ppm (162.03 Q/ha) respectively. Similarly higher content of protein % (0.77) was recorded in root of plant applied with GA3 100 ppm  at maturity as compare to applied with  Cycocel 100 ppm  (0.61%). The higher andrographolide content in leaf applied with GA3 @ 100 ppm (2.97 % w/w) was very effective and recorded maximum percentage of leaf  andrographolide respectively.
