Field experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block\nDesign (RCBD) with 4 replications. The MH concentration affected % change in\nplant height and no. of leaves per plant. Maximum root yield was obtained at\n0.25% concentration (44.8 t ha<sup>-1<\/sup>) and minimum at 0.025% MH\nconcentration (26.07 t ha<sup>-1<\/sup>). Bolting was significantly delayed\n(p&lt;0.05) by increasing MH concentration. 0.25% MH concentration was found\nsuperior with respect to inhibitive effect on growth parameters, delayed\nbolting, highest root yield and B:C ration. The result must be replicated\nseveral times for proper validation of the results obtained. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key words: <\/strong>Late winter, Maleic hydrazide, Growth retardation, Bolting delay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/sjar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/v7n4p39.pdf\">Full paper in English: PDF<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Janjit Adhikari*(1) Purushottam Dhodary(2) Manoj Joshi(3) Ram Dhan Tharu(3) Ashok Mandal(4) Rukmagat Pathak(3) and Puspa Raj Poudel(3) (1).
