Abstract
The effect of growth regulators – benzyladenine /BA/, gibberellic acid /GA/ and naphthaleneacetic acid /NAA/ on flower bud development of carnation was investigated.
The results have shown that BA unaffected or slightly promoted the flower bud development both under short and long days.
GA retarded the bud development more under short days than under long days.
Testing endogenous gibberelling in buds of different sizes, it became evident that gibberellins’ content decreased proportionally to the increasing bud size.
NAA retarded carnation bud development and caused abnormalities and deformation of flowers.
