Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during summer season 2012 and 2013 at the research farm R.B.S. college Agra, U.P., to find out the effect of different levels of growth regulator on germination percent, germination energy, seed vigour and other characters of Pant mung-5, K-851,SML-668 and Pusa-9072 varieties of mungbean. The significant higher increment was observed in varieties Pant mung-5, P-9072, SML-668 and K-851 under 2,4-D treatments dose 10-3 in germination percent and plumule length and radicle length in both the years. The maximum germination energy was recorded in varieties Pant mung-5 and K-851 under GA treatment dose 10-1. The vigour index, number of seed pod-1 and 100 seed weight by all varieties gave superior results in both the years. All experimental varieties of mungbean under BA treatment at 10-1 dose reported highest plant height..
