Abstract

Vignaradiata (L.) Wilczek Var. belong to family Leguminaceae, sub- family,papilionaceae.In
Maharashtra, the green gram grown as a pulse crop. It is one of the most ancient legumes of
India and is still an important crop. It rich in protein and commonly called as ‘dal’. The response
on seed germination of Vignaradiata(L.) Wilczek Var.was investigated on IAA, GA, SA and
2,4-D, in different concentrations viz., control (000) 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000 ppm respectively.
The higher percentage of seed germination was occur in SA in high concentration at 1500ppm
(90%) followed by IAA (80%). The plant length and root length were significantly increased in
all concentrations of IAA, GA, and SA. 2,4-D did not show any significant difference. The
shoot length was moderate in all hormones except GA. The number of leaves, fresh weight and
biomass did not variable as compared to control. The result showed that SA and IAA increased
