Title: Effect of zinc and boron on growth parameters of blackgram (Vigna mungo L.)
Abstract: Blackgram (Vinga mungo L.) is one of the most valued pulses due to its culinary values. It has been able to draw a special attention from the scientist and growers for the intensified and inorganic cropping system of Bangladesh. Use of proper micronutrients in appropriate amount is the key factor of pulse productivity. Therefore, a field experiment was conducted at Sher-e- Bangla Agriculture University, Sher-e- Bangla nagor, Dhaka-1207, Bangladesh from September 2012 to December 2012 to evaluate  the performance of blackgram (BARI Mash- 3)  influenced by the various levels of Zinc (Zn) and Boron (B) fertilizers. Four levels of Zn (0, 1.25, 2.5 and 3.75 kg ha–1) and five levels of B (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 kg ha–1) were studied in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The results revealed that the single application of Zn=2.50 kg ha–1, B=1.50 kg ha–1 and their combination (Zn2.5 × B1.5kg ha–1) showed more significant increase in growth characteristics viz. Leaf area index, total dry matter, crop growth rate and relative growth rate of blackgram in this study. The application of these two fertilizers as singly or their interaction would be the most appropriate level for getting the superior growth and yield performance of Blackgram
 Key Words: Leaf area index, Total dry matter, Crop growth rate, Relative growth rate, ZnSO4 and Boric Acid
