The experiment was undertaken in the Farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, during Kharif 1 season, April to July 2013 to examine the response of different levels of nitrogen and foliar application of 1-napthaleneacitic acid (NAA) on morphology variety BARI Til 4. The experiment was laid out in two factors Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. The total treatment combinations were 12 (3x4). Results of the experiment showed a significant variation among the treatments in respect of the majority of the observed parameters. The N significantly increased morphological characters - plant height, number of leaves plant-1, fresh and dry weight of shoot and root; As N, NAA also stimulated the all morphological characters except leaf and branch number plant-1 of sesame. The interaction between different levels of N and NAA was significantly influenced on almost all morphological parameters and yield contributing characters and seed yield of sesame. Separately, the leaf and branch number plant-1 of sesame did not show any significant difference with combined use of N and NAA. Based on the present results, it can be suggested that the combined use of 60 kg N/ha with 50 ppm NAA have increased plant morphological parameters of sesame.
