CALCIUM CONCENTRATION IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF GROUNDNUT Arachis hypogaea L. AS INFLUENCED BY LEVELS AND METHODS OF APPLICATION OF GYPSUM

Abstract

Field experiment conducted at Hebbal, Bangalore, on TMV-2 groundnut during 1977- and 1978 kharif seasons, to study the calcium concentration in different plant parts of groundnut as influenced by levels and methods of gypsum application indicated that the addition of increasing levels of gypsum proportionately increased the concentration of calcium in leaf, stem tissue and in groundnut pods. Application to the sides at flowering resulted in highest concentration of calcium.
