A field experiment was performed in the course of rabi year 2017-18.to study the effect of nitrogen, phosphorus and biofertilizers on the protein content of seeds of garden peas (Pisum sativum L.) cv. Arkel. The experiment was set up in RBD, with 11 treatments in three replications comparing nitrogen and phosphorus levels, as well as bio-fertilizers, to the control.A significant increase in protein content from 15.60% to 22.06% when 20 kg per hectare N + 40 kgper hectare P + Rhizobium + PSB was applied (T5), maximal nitrogen concentration in plants was 20 kg per hectare N + 40 kg per hectare P + Rhizobium + PSB (T5) (2.30 per cent). T5 was statistically comparable to 20 kg per hectare N + 40 kg per hectare P + Rhizobium (T3) and 20 kg per hectare N + 40 kg per hectare P + PSB (T4).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
