Abstract
Chia has become enormous recognition as a super food worldwide, as reflected by a sharp rise in both consumption and cultivation. Salicylic acid (SA), a vital signaling molecule, is essential for plant tolerance responses to biotic and abiotic stress preserving healthy plant growth and enhancing productivity in stress condition. A field investigation of carried out during Rabi season of 2021 and 2022 at experimental field of Horticulture Department, C. B. G. Agriculture PG College, BKT, Lucknow to examine the “Influence of foliar application of salicylic acid on growth and yield of chia (Salvia hispanica L.)”. The treatment consisted of five dose of foliar application of salicylic acid (0, 75, 150, 300 and 600 ppm). The experiment was laid out in a design of Randomized Block Design (RBD) and replicated three times. The foliar application of SA resulted in greater plant height, number of branches, fresh weight and dry weight of plant, yield and yield component of chia during the study. Generally the greatest values were registered from 300 ppm foliar application of salicylic acid.
