Abstract
The aim of the experiment was to evaluate the effects of a growth regulator on alfalfa (Medicago x varia T. Martyn). The authors of the experiments had had the regulator patented in Poland. There were following experimental variants with different application times: Controlapplication of distilled water both during the six-true-leaf stage and during the early-bud stage, AF 1application of the regulator during the six-true-leaf stage and distilled water during the early-bud stage, AF 2application of distilled water during the six-true-leaf stage and the regulator during the early-bud stage, AF 1,2application of the regulator both during the six-true-leaf stage and during the early-bud stage. The results were processed statistically with the analysis of variance, while differences between means were verified with Tukey's test (p 0.05). It was found that the growth regulator increased stomatal width and the length of the stomatal pore in the stomata of the upper epidermis of the leaf blade. The application positively affected the length and mass of shoots, the number of shoots, but also the mass of inflorescence and roots. In the aboveground biomass there was a rise in the content of protein, phosphorus, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and titanium.
