摘要

This study investigated the impact of growth retardants and training systems on vegetative and reproductive traits of cape gooseberries (Physalis peruviana L.). Growth parameters were documented, including the chlorophyll concentration of leaves, fruit size and weight, as well as nutrient composition (NPK) of the fruits throughout different growth stages. The findings showed that controlled vegetative growth and good canopy architecture enhanced fruit quality and yield. At the time of transplant, we recorded at 30, 60, 90, 120, and 150 days for leaf area, chlorophyll content, fruit length, breadth, weight, and nutrient uptake. It was observed that treatments balanced out vegetative growth and also had a significant effect on reproductive parameters compared to control. The results highlight the value of integrated growth regulation for improved yield consistency. For future research, we suggest hormone profiling, study of flowering physiology, and looking at long-term productivity in many climate and soil types.
