Seedlings of Trigonella foenum-graecurn and Brassica chinensis were raised in earthen pots; out of which ten pots for each crop were treated with ascorbic acid solution of 200 mg. per litre and 400 mg. per litre respectively, while others served as controls. 2. Treatment with AA resulted in enhanced vegetative growth, like greater stem height, production of more leaves with larger size and accumulation of greater fresh and dry weights. 3. AA treated plants flowered earlier than the controls. 4. The number of flowers and fruits per plant, the number of seeds per fruit and the thousand seed weight were significantly higher in AA treated plants as compared with the untreated ones. 5. The results have been discussed in the light of interaction of AA and IAA suggested previously.
