International Journal of Horticulture, 2026, Vol.16, No.3, 164-171 http://hortherbpublisher.com/index.php/ijh 170 associated with plant growth regulator application to better understand the mechanisms responsible for enhanced seed yield. 5 Conclusion On the basis of the above findings, it can be concluded that different concentrations of GA3 and NAA has significant effect on growth parameters like peduncle height, number of leaves, number of branches, canopy cover and yield parameters like number of inflorescences, number of pods per inflorescence, number of seeds per pod, Thousand Grain Weight (TGW) and seed yield per plant. GA3 at different ppm has shown more effect than NAA at different concentrations whereas the control treatment has the least effect in all measured parameters above. GA3 at 50 ppm has given the best result in maximum parameters like plant height, leaf number, number of pods per inflorescence, TGW and seed yield per plant.
