ABSTRACT
The effect of seaweed liquid fertilizer of Turbinaria decurrens on growth and biochemical constituents of Vigna radiata was investigated at different concentrations of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0%. 1.5% of SLF promoted the growth namely shoot length, root length, fresh weight, dry weight, leaf area, number of root nodules, photosynthetic pigments, protein, glucose and NR activity than the control and the other concentrations.
Key words :
Biofertilizer, Greengram, Seaweed, SLF, Turbinaria decurrens, Vigna radiata.
