Kinetin and potassium nitrate effects on agronomic characteristics of soybean
The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of kinetin and of potassium nitrate, applied on leaves in the phenological phase R3, on some agronomic characteristics of soybean plants and their yield in field. Five concentrations of kinetin combined with four concentrations of potassium nitrate were used in an outline bi-factorial, in a randomized block experimental design, with three replications. The potassium nitrate application did not influence the studied agronomic characteristics. Kinetin increased the pod set number up to 27.4%, in contrast to the control. Kinetin increased the weight of 1,000 seeds and the yield up to 2.7 and 32.3%, respectively.
