Abstract

The experiment was conducted on Sudhakar Seedless vines grafted on 110-R rootstock were selected for this study. The experiment was designed in randomized block design (RBD) having five treatments with four replications were carried out at MRDBS Nashik during 2020-2021. Pre-harvest application of treatments (Chitosan at 10 ppm, Naphthalene acetic acid at 100 ppm, activated Potassium salt @ 2.0 g/ liter, Salicylic acid at 2.0 ml/liter and Potassium Schoenite @ 2.0 g/liter along with untreated vines were applied at veraison stage of berry development. Application of Chitosan @ 10 ppm resulted in to the increase berry size and berry quality along with less Number of rotten berries in physiological loss in weight. Followed by the application of Naphthalene acetic acid at 100 ppm recorded less Number of rotten in this study. However, the lowest physiological loss of weight (%) were recorded with the application of Naphthalene acetic acid. The increasing dose of Naphthalene acetic acid resulted into decrease in pre- harvest berry drop. In grapevines, Application of salicylic acid significantly increase in berry weight, bunch weight, Total Soluble Solids /acidity ratio as compare to untreated vines. Biochemical composition of berries was influenced by the application of Activated potassium salt at different concentration. The application of Potassium schoenite in grapevines were found effective for increasing TSS of Sudhakar seedless grapes.
