- Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the growth dynamics based on the dry matter production of Lotus corniculatus L. variety 202700 and its morphological composition. Design/Methodology/Approach: The study was carried out in greenhouses conditions, from December 2020 to May 2021. The effect of indole butyric acid (IBA) growth promoter in solid Radix 1500 and liquid Radix T 3000 presentation (S+RSolid and S+RLiquid) and a control (Substrate) was evaluated. A completely randomized design with three replications was used, each with twenty pots as replications. 1300 pots were planted, of which 20 were taken monthly from each treatment (30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 days) for subsequent data recording. Results: S+RSolid was the one that presented the highest values followed by S+RLiquid and Control (S) respectively. Study Limitations/Implications: Destructive sampling of less than 30 days or greater than 150 days was not considered. Findings/Conclusions: The plants with the application of 1500 ppm of IBA registered the greatest response in terms of variables: number of leaves, number of stems, leaves (g), stems (g), roots (g), root height (cm), root volume (cm3), greenness index, leaf area (cm²/g) and plant height (cm), with respect to the rest of the treatments.
