Identification Of Variations In Plant Morphology Through Different Methods Of Gypsum Application In Tulsi Ocimumbasilicum

Abstract This study characterized the influence of Gypsum CaSO42H20 a chemical fertilizer on Tulsi Ocimum basilicum plant. The experiment was conducted with five different methods of treatments Viz. ControlIncinerationBroadcastingLines and spots and constant 1 ton hec gypsum applied to the field for observing morphological variability through a randomized completely block design with four replications. Data was recorded on plant height Plant weight Stem weight Leaf weight and Number of leaves. There was a great significance observed in Plant height Plant weight and Stem weight. Interesting high morphological variability was seen constantly in the Spots treatment. Hence the results suggest that Spots treatments works best to achieve better growth at 1 ton hec application of gypsum.
