Abstract

The present paper summarizes the effect of Iron, a micronutrient also treated as heavy metal on the adult growth and yield of Mung bean (Vigno mungo L. cv. T-9). This cultivar found to respond differently to Iron. The present study indicated the promontory effect at lower concentration and inhibitory effect at higher concentration in Vigna mungo L. cv. T-9. It is further indicated that the overall gorwth and nodule formation are suppressed at higher concentration (50 mg/kg soil) of Iron.
