Response of phosphorous and growth regulators on oil seed crops: A review

Abstract

Oilseeds are rich in protein, and additionally, they contain a high level of fat. Hence, they're not only good sources of protein but also concentrated sources of energy. The proteins in oilseeds are often fed either as a part of the oil-intact seed or as a meal from which the oil has been removed. For better production of oilseeds, it's compulsory to specialize in the appliance of various essential nutrients within the sort of fertilizers. We’ve to focus on the foremost important oilseed crops within the world. As practices, a properly balanced supply of phosphorous and application of plant growth regulators (PGRs) is one among the foremost important factors to extend higher yield and oil content in oilseed crops. PGRs play a crucial role in mitigating stress, increasing flower set, yield, and physiological efficiency of the crop. Many field experiments conducted on different oilseed crops from which it is often reported that the optimum level of phosphorous and growth regulators significantly enhanced the expansion, yield, oil content, and protein in oilseeds. This paper directly focuses on the role of phosphorus and growth regulators of naphthalene acetic acid and salicylic acid in improving oilseed crop production.
