Abstract

The present study has been made to investigate the effect of Seaweed Liquid Fertilizer (SLF) of Hypnea valentiae (Turner) Montagne on seed germination, shoot length, root length, and biochemical content of Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br. The Seaweed Liquid Fertilizer prepared from Hypnea valentiae (Turner) Montagne was observed to have the positive effect on the shoot and root length of Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br. The biochemicals such as total carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and phenols were increased when the Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br. treated up to 10% of Seaweed Liquid Fertilizer. The seed germination, shoot length, root length and biochemical content were maximum at 10% SLF. From the present study, it can be concluded that Hypnea valentiae (Turner) Montagne can be used as biofertilizer for the growth of Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.
