4.2.4.3. Interaction effect of row spacing and plant growth regulator
Interaction effect of row spacing and plant growth regulator showed significant variation in 1000 grains weight of mungbean (Appendix LX and Table 8). The highest 1000 grains weight (49.70 g) was recorded from the combination of P2G40 treatment and the lowest :34.50 g) was recorded from the combination of P1G0 treatment which, was statistically
;imilar to P3Go (36.83 g) treatment.

4.2.5. Grain yield
4.2.5.1. Effect of row spacing
Grain yield varied significantly due to row spacing (Appendix X and Table 9). The highest grain yield (1.63 t ha-') was recorded from the 30cm x 30 cm spacing treatment whereas, the lowest (1.101 ha4) was found in the 20cm x 10 cm spacing treatment.
4.2.5.2. Effect of plant growth regulator
Grain yield of mungbean varied significantly due to plant growth regulator (Appendix X and Table 10). The highest grain yield (1.68 t ha') was recorded from the 40 ppm NAA treatment whereas, the lowest (I. Ii t ha') was found in the 0 ppm NAA treatment.
4.2.5.3. Interaction effect of row spacing and plant growth regulator
Statistically significant differences in grain yield of mungbean were recorded for the interaction of row spacing and plant growth regulator (Appendix X and Table 11). The maximum grain yield (2.00 t ha') was recorded from the combination of 30 cm x 10 cm spacing with 40 ppm NAA treatment and the minimum (0.93 t ha') was found in the combination of 20 cm x 10 cm spacing with 0 ppm NAA treatment.
