The present investigation entitled “Effects of pollinator attractants, chemicals and growth regulators on the morphological traits of mango (Mangifera indica L.) cv. Kesar” was carried out at Fruit Research Station, Lalbaug, College of Horticulture, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh following under South Saurashtra Agro-climatic Zone during the year 2022-23 to 2023-24. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design consisting of ten treatments which were replicated three times. The maximum number of fruits per panicle (2.06, 1.98 and 2.02), fruit length (11.73, 11.79 and 11.76 cm), fruit diameter (7.18, 7.16 and 7.15 cm), fruit weight (280.12, 277.76 and 278.94 g), fruit volume (273.82, 270.40 and 272.11 ml), pulp weight (198.37, 197.12 and 197.75 g), pulp to peel ratio fruit (4.48, 4.48 and 4.48) were recorded with foliar spray of NAA 50 ppm + micronutrient mixture Grade-IV @ 1% (T₈) during both the years as well as in pooled. Meanwhile, minimum peel weight (44.12 g) was recorded in foliar application of NAA 50 ppm + micronutrient mixture Grade-IV @ 1% (T₈) for pooled data but in case of both year it was found to be non significant. Significantly minimum stone weight (37.12, 35.58 and 36.74 g) was recorded in foliar spray of NAA 50 ppm + micronutrient mixture Grade-IV @ 1% (T₈) for first year and calcium nitrate @ 0.1% + boric acid @ 0.2% (T₁₀) during second year as well as in pooled, respectively.
