Action of plant stimulants on behavior of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. goiano precoce)

This research deals with the effects of Pix, Atonik, Ergostim and Cytozyme application on behavior of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Goiano Precoce), under greenhouse conditions. Beans were sowing in pots and Pix and Atonik (1.0 l/ha), Ergostim (0.5 l/ha) and Cytozyme (2.0 l/ha) were applied 30 days after sowing. Ergostim promoted growth and presented a tendency to increase number of pods and seeds, and reduced K/r ratio. Pix presented a tendency to increase number of pods, K/r ratio and protein level in the seeds. Atonik and Cytozyme did not promote changes in the parameters studied.
