Effect of potassium naphthenate on rice (oryza sativa L)
Abstract
Effect of seed soaking and foliar sprays of 0.1, 0.01 and 0.001% potassium naphthenate (K-Nap) solutions on rice oryza sativa L., cv IRRI-6 was investigated . soaking of seeds in each of the solution significantly (p< 0.05) increased the number the number of productive tillers per pot but it did not materially affect the grain weight . K-Nap spray of 0.001% , in addition to seed soaking , further increased the straw weight but grain weight and number of grains per fertile tiller decreased.
