ABSTRACT:

Effect of foliar spray of manganese sulphate and copper sulphate on nodule , shoot and root length of Trigonella foenum graecum was studied. Nodule increased when 50 ppm concentration while at higher concentration (100 ppm and 200 ppm), nodule formation was inhibited. Copper sulphate was inhibitory at 200 ppm. Manganese sulphate was more toxic than copper sulphate.
