DIQUIT, ROSALINDA P., Don Severino Agricul-tural College, Indang, Cavite, April 1991, "Effect of Different Levels of GA on Rice Grain Development and Quality." Adviser: Dr. Vicente G. Lontoc.
The study, "Effect of Different Levels of GA3 on Rice Grain Development and Quality" was conducted from September to December 1990 at Bucal 1, Maragondon, Cavite. The study aimed to find out the best level of GA3 to be applied to IR 72 and to determine the effect of GA3 on grain development and quality of rice. A Completely Randomized Design with four treatments and three replications was used in this study.
The treatments used were as follows: Tl - (Control), T2 - 10 ppm GA3, T3 - 15 ppm GA3, and T4 - 30 ppm GA3. Based from the results of the studies, plants sprayed with GA3 solution gave a better performance as compared to the untreated one of the control. GA3 at the 30 ppm (Treatment 4) proved to be best concentration as regards the height of the plants, number of tillers, weight of 100 grains and total dry matter yield, although it was not significantly different with Treatment 3 (15 ppm GA3).
The other treatments, T2 -10 ppm GA3, however, produced better results as compared to Treatment 1 (control).
