Abstract: The field experiment was conducted at Chilli and Vegetable Research Unit, Dr. PDKV, Akola during kharif season of 2017 with three replications and thirteen treatments in randomized block design. The experiment consisted of one genotype (AKOV-107) and four different plant growth regulators study was carried out to evaluate the foliar sprays of plant growth regulators GA3, NAA, salicylic acid and chitosan at three different concentrations of each and one control (without spray) replicated three time. Observations recorded on 11 different parameters like plant height, number of branches per plant, number of leaves per plant, leaf area, internodal distance (cm), average fresh weight per plant, dry wet per plant, node to first flowering, fruit length (cm), fruit diameter (cm) and yield per plot. Foliar application of 150 ppm GA3 and 200 ppm NAA have beneficial role on plant characters and yield of okra.
