ABSTRACT
A study was carried out in the Department of Plant physiology, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi to investigate the effect of GABA on morphological characters and yield attributes of black gram. The results revealed thatthe maximum Plant height was observed at all the growth stages 30, 45, 60 DAS for T3 (NaCl 50mM + GABA 70mM) compared to all other treatments respectively. Least plant height was recorded in T8 (NaCl 100mM). GABA gives its best result when stress is present such as salt stress, higher total plant dry matter weight recorded for T3 (NaCl 50mM+GABA 70mM) over all other treatment at 30 DAS, 45 DAS and 60 DAS. Least plant dry weight was recorded in T8 (NaCl 100mM) and the highest number of pods per plant was recorded in T3 (NaCl 50mM+GABA 70mM) over all other treatment at 45 DAS and 60 DAS . The least number of pods per plant was recorded in T8 (100mM NaCl). The data pertaining to grain yield per plant .The maximum grain yield 3.9g was recorded in T3 which was significantly superior over all other treatment and control was recorded.
Key words: Black gram, effect of GABA, Nacl, Salt stress Condition, Morphological parameter.
