  • Effect of nano and macro iron sprays on growth, flowering, seed and oilyielding attributes in calendula (Calendula officinalis L.) R.K. Srivastava K.R. Tarakeshwari N.S. Bhandari S. Chand Agrociencias Calendula Flowering Nano iron Seed yield Oil content The investigation was executed with nine treatments viz. nano forms of ferrous sulfide (7, 14, 21, 28 ppm) and macro ferrous sulphate (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 per cent) along with control, and were applied as foliar sprays after 30 days of transplanting on two varieties of calendula namely Fiesta Gitana Mix’ and ‘Fiesta Yellow’ during 2018 and 2019. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications. Application of 0.8 % FeSO. recorded maximum number of branches (26.75), plant height (29.73 cm), plant spread (45.17 cm), number of leaves (22.63) and seed test weight (15.63 g) and number of flowers per plant (134.04). However, application of 0.2% macro FeSO. resulted in early bud appearance (50.50 days) and higher flower diameter (8.09 cm). ‘Fiesta Gitana Mix’ outperformed over ‘Fiesta Yellow’ for most of the vegetative and floral characters. The ‘Fiesta Yellow’ variety with oil content (13.97%) had an edge over ‘Fiesta Gitana Mix’. 2022 artículo científico 0973-354X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=577073682002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5770/577073682002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5770/577073682002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5770/577073682002/577073682002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5770/577073682002/movil https://doi.org/10.24154/jhs.v17i2.1132 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5770 Journal of Horticultural Sciences application/pdf Society for Promotion of Horticulture Journal of Horticultural Sciences (India) Num.2 Vol.17
