Abstract
Seed inoculation with rhizobial strains have significantly enhanced the production and accumulation of nitrogen transporting compounds (Ureides) over untreated control in CO 5 greengram. Among the plant parts, maximum ureide production was observed at nodules and was effectively translocated to flowers and pods through root, stem and leaves. Among the strains inoculated better effect was recorded by GG 2 followed by the other tuo strains. Maximum translocation and accumulation of ureides were recorded in leaves, stem, root and flowers at 45 DAS, whereas in pods it was found to accumulate at 60 DAS. Incorporation of Fe at 0.5 mM and Mo at 0.5 μM enhanced ureide production in the different parts of greengram.
Key words : Ureides, Allantoin, Rhizobial inoculation, Micronutrients.
