Khamkar R. P.*, Gaikwad D. K., Kadam S. S. and Kamble S. M.
ABSTRACT
The effect of NaF (50ppm, 100ppm and 200ppm) on photosynthetic pigments i.e. Chlorophyll (a and b) and total chlorophyll was determined in field experiments. Foliar applications of NaF on one week and one month old seedlings of wheat induces photosynthetic pigments. The amount of chlorophyll is found to be increased with increasing fluride concentration. It affects overall performance of wheat in field condition.
Keywords: Sodium fluoride, wheat, Photosynthetic pigments.
