Abstract: | The effect of exogenous brassinosteroids (BR) on the flowering induction of Pharbitis nil was examined. Generally plants treated with brassinolide and castasterone form less number of flowers than control plants, but degree of flowering inhibition was depended on the concentration and the method of BR application as well as the length of the inductive dark period. In plants regenerated from sub-induced apices treated with brassinolide at concentration of 1 and 10 M the flower formation was inhibited completely. |
