The micronutrient required in minute quantity and their deficiency leads to diminished growth and yield of crops. The field experiment was carried out at College Farm, Rajendranagar during rabi 2015-16 with factorial randomized block design with two factors sorghum genotypes and zinc levels. Findings revealed that varieties and fertilization spray had significant on zinc concentration and uptake by grain and stover of sorghum. Variety CSV -31 (V2) and soil application of zinc sulphate @ 50 kg ha -1 + foliar spray of ZnSO4 @ 0.2% at knee high stage and at flowering (F5) gave significantly highest zinc concentration and uptake by grain and stover in comparison to their respective treatments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
