Effects of Moisture Stress and Anti‐transpirants on Leaf Chlorophyll,

Effects of Moisture Stress and Anti‐transpirants on Leaf Chlorophyll, Brinjal plants (Solanum melongena L.) grown under moisture stress conditions in a glasshouse were treated with three anti‐transpirants, namely cycocel, limewash and potassium chloride, to study their influence on chlorophyll content, soluble protein and photosynthetic rate. Moisture stress imposed at each of the three growth stages decreased chlorophyll content, soluble protein and photosynthetic rate. Of the anti‐transpirants investigated, cycocel performed better than limewash and po‐tassium chloride. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science Wiley

Abstract

Brinjal plants (Solanum melongena L.) grown under moisture stress conditions in a glasshouse were treated with three anti‐transpirants, namely cycocel, limewash and potassium chloride, to study their influence on chlorophyll content, soluble protein and photosynthetic rate. Moisture stress imposed at each of the three growth stages decreased chlorophyll content, soluble protein and photosynthetic rate. Of the anti‐transpirants investigated, cycocel performed better than limewash and po‐tassium chloride.
