RESULTS
Banana growth promotion in pot experiments
The banana seedlings possessed approximately the
same properties at the beginning of the experiment.
Thirty days after being transplanted to the pots, no
significant differences in plant height, pseudo stem diameter,
and biomass were observed between the BIO
and control treatments. After 60 d of growth, the application
of BIO did significantly increase the plant
height, pseudo stem diameter, and FW and DW of banana
plants by 12.33%, 21.53%, 22.57%, and 34.63%,
respectively (Table I).
