“…But the amount tissue nitrogen concentration recorded for new BILFA 58 was in sufficient range in both lime treated and untreated soils. [10] reported that 4.0-8.0g kg -1 Mg on dry matter basis is the sufficient range for common bean growth. Mg concentrations in the leaf tissues of both genotypes were in the sufficient range except at the maximum aluminium applied.…”

The study was carried out to assess the effect of different concentrations of exchangeable aluminum on yield and nutrient concentrations in the leaf tissues of two common bean genotypes grown in pots on limed and unlimed acidic soils. Factorial combinations of five aluminum rates and two common bean genotypes were laid out in a completely randomized design with three replications. Yield and leaf nutrient concentrations were markedly affected by aluminium application and the magnitude of this effect depended on the genotype, on the levels of aluminium applied, and liming regimes. On average, the genotypes suffered 10.8% (new BILFA 58) and 24.5% (Roba 1) reductions in grain yield when grown on unlimed soil than limed soil. Lime application increased nutrient content of the leaf (28.5% P, 36.9% Ca, 4.91% K and 14.7% N) and reduced aluminium (56.4%) concentrations in the leaf tissue compared to limed soil. It is concluded that applying aluminum significantly decreased yield and nutrient uptake of both genotypes under both liming regimes.
