ABSTRACT
The application of microbial and chemical fertilizers solely or combined application had a great influence at
all the growth stages of the crop. Significant differences in all parameters like, total biomass differs
irrespective of the treatments differed significantly. Among all the treatments, the maximum biomass was
observed in T10 (containing urea, super phosphate, Murate of potash, Azospirillum, Phosphobacteria and
potassium mobilizer (each 5g / pot). The fresh weight was 89.67g/plant and dry weight 6.15g/plant during
harvest time. Maximum total chlorophyll content was recorded in T10 (1.7490 mg/g). The maximum
protein content was recorded in T10 which was 18.2mg/g at flowering stage. Total phenol content was
recorded in T10 which was (19.6mg/g-1). The level of total free amino acids ranged 25.0 mg/g was found
increased at 80 days. The total carbohydrates were increased in T10 plant was 92mg/g at flowering stage
in leaf samples.
Keywords: Total biomass, Chlorophyll, Carbohydrates, treatments and potassium mobilizer.
