| Abstract | Floral induction (FI) has been intensively studied in mango, more under sub-tropical than under tropical environments. Decreases in temperature below 20 °C, which is common in sub-tropical regions but seldom occurs in many tropical ones, has been considered a critical factor for FI in this species. Trying to understand the way by which two FI treatments, potassium nitrate (KNO$_{3}$) and paclobutrazol (PBZ), can regulate flowering by modulating the endogenous concentrations of plant hormones, the following compounds were analyzed in terminal buds, wood and bark sections of lateral branches from treated and untreated ‘Tommy Atkins’ mango trees growing under tropical conditions: indole-acetic acid (IAA), gibberellins (GAs), zeatin/zeatin riboside (Z/ZR) and N $^{ 6 }$(Δ$^{2}$-isopentenyl) adenine/N $^{ 6 }$(Δ$^{2}$-isopentenyl) adenosine. Behavior in the contents of these endogenous hormones was often irregular but their course was in general similar for all three treatments. However, levels of GAs were consistently lower in most evaluations of wood and bark sections of PBZ-treated trees compared to KNO$_{3}$-treated and control plants. In contrast, the endogenous levels of the presumably FI promoting Z/ZR raised considerably at the time close to FI in buds of KNO$_{3}$-treated trees. These KNO$_{3}$-treated trees flowered earlier and more profusely than those from other treatments. Although PBZ could be related in this work to a reduction in GA contents, no direct influence of this compound over FI could be established. KNO$_{3}$ might partially exert its promoting effect on mango FI by increasing Z/ZR contents. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
