Abstract
The fruit size is important because it is a production component and also determines the consumer acceptance. The objective was to evaluate the effect of different doses of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and periods of application on fruit length and width of muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) cv. Edisto 47. Plants were sprayed with IAA and NAA at 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mg L-1 each at 7, 14 and 21 days after flowering (DAS). A split split plot design was used with three replications. Main plots were the application period, the sub plots were the IAA and NAA doses and the sub sub plots were IAA and NAA. IAA did not affect on fruit length of muskmelon when it was applied at different doses and periods. NAA decreased fruit length when it was applied at 100, 150 and 200 mg L-1 at 7 DAS. IAA decreased fruit width in comparison with NAA when both were applied at 14 DAS. The widest muskmelon fruits were obtained with the application of NAA (50 and 100 mg L-1) and length of fruit is not significantly affected by AIA doses different and times application. The application of 100 mg L-1 NAA, 7 dff decreased the length of fruit.
