Abstract

The experiment was laid out in RBD with three replications comprising six doses of KNO3 (10, 20, 30, 50, 75 and 100 mM) were compared with control. It was found that the growth, nodulation, chlorophyll content and nutrient uptake of the seedlings of Albizia lebbeck were significantly better with nitrate application over control. A positive response was observed up to 75 mM nitrate application.
