Abstract
The experiment was conducted at the Horticulture Farm of Sher-e-Bangla
Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from April, 2013 to March
2014. The experiment consisted of two factors. Factor A: Four levels of
potassium i.e. K
0
: 0, K
1
: 125 K
2
: 145 and K
3
: 165 kg K
O/ha and Factor B:
three levels of GA

i.e. G

respectively. The
experiment was conducted in a Randomized Complete Block Design with three
replications. The maximum number of spike

In respect of combined effect, K
