Table 5.

Effect of different treatments on the zinc and phosphorus content of the seeds of groundnut plants.

Treatments Zinc (mg/kg) Phosphorus (mg/kg)
T1 1.05 ± 0.28d 14.03 ± 0.38e
T2 3.03 ± 0.32c 19.05 ± 0.61c
T3 6.04 ± 0.30a 25.08 ± 0.81a
T4 5.01 ± 0.35b 23.28 ± 0.91b
T5 1.08 ± 0.53d 16.17 ± 0.80d

Values are mean ± SD of four replication samples in each group; Column means followed by common superscript are not significant at 5 % level by DMRT.

T1: Uninoculated Control; T2: Seeds treated with liquid formulation; T3: Seeds treated with liquid formulation and the soil amended with organic manure (Farmyard); T4: Soil amended with organic manure (Farmyard) alone; T5: Seeds treated with lignite (solid) based bioinoculant.
