Abstract
Abstract The experiment was conducted on Vigna mungo an important pulse crop of Tamil Nadu, South India. It is to study the effect of the green seaweed Ulva reticulata as fertilizer on the growth of black gram. The various concentrations of Seaweed liquid fertilizer from U. reticulata such as 1%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10% w/v was applied as foliar spray. Further epidermal peal from the leaf of 10% SLF treated Vigna mungo were subjected to scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy, it revealed that outer portion of epidermal wall contained ten elements in the following order: Ca>P>Na>Mg>Zn>N>Fe>K>Si>S whereas the inner portion contained eight elements in the following order: Mg>Mn>Na>N>Fe>Si>S>K. The present study revealed that the seaweed Ulva reticulata foliar sprayed leaf epidermal portion occupied high amount of mineral content. This practice could meet the manurial requirement for organic farming and serve as a cost effective eco-friendly approach for sustainable agriculture and environment.
