Abstract: PARAISO, IRMA FE RONATO, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, Philippines, April 1999. "INDUCTION OF UNIFORM POD RIPENING IN MUNGBEAN USING ETHREL". Prof. Eulogia M. Alano, Adviser. This study was conducted at the Central Experiment Station of Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite from August 1998 to November 1998. The study was conducted primarily to determine the effect of different concentrations of ethrel on pod ripening of three varieties of mungbean. A 500 square meter field was used for the experiment. The experiment was arranged in a split plot randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three varieties of mungbean as main plots and four concentrations of ethrel as subplots. The characters evaluated were the following: number of days from planting to flowering, number of days from flowering to maturity, number of days from maturity to ripening, percentage of ripened pods, seed dry weight and computed yield per hectare. Results revealed that application of varying concentrations of ethrel effected significant differences on the number of days from maturity to ripening. Likewise, there were significant differences observed on varieties for parameters such as number of days from planting to flowering, number of days from maturity to ripening and percentage of ripened pods. However, non-significant results were observed on the number of days from flowering to maturity, seed dry weight and computed yield per hectare. It was observed that Variety 2 (Pag-asa 7) showed superiority in terms of percentage of ripened pods, seed dry weight and computed yield per hectare. Nevertheless, Variety 3 (Taiwanese green) produced the highest percentage of ripened pods at 600 ppm of ethrel (C3). It was noteworthy, that application of ethrel at the rate of 600 ppm (C3) accelerated ripening, thus increasing the number of ripened pods.
