MORPHO-PHYSIOLOGICAL AND FLOWERING BEHAVIOR OF BOUGAINVILLEA CULTIVARS (Pages : 35 - 40)
H. MEHRAJ, T. CHANDA, A.A. MASUM BILLAH, F.N. JAHAN AND A.F.M. JAMAL UDDINAn experiment was conducted on rooftop garden, Department of Horticulture, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Bangladesh to study the morpho-physiological and flowering behavior of 11 bougainvillea cultivars. All of the plant morpho-physiological and flowering characteristics of bougainvillea varied significantly among the cultivars. However, maximum chlorophyll content (75.5), Cref (22.8 vpm), Qleaf (172.7 µmolm-2s-1), A (14.6 µmolm-2s-1) was found from Mahara Beauty (Pink) but maximum leaf area from James Walker (50.5 cm2), eref from Juanita Hatten (55.2 mBar) and gs from Delta Dawn (Yellow) (0.14 µmolm-2s-1). Maximum number of floret was found from Temple Fire (29.5) but sub floret/floret (92.0) and petaloid bracts/floret (972.7) was found Mahara Beauty (Pink).Download
