Abstract

We investigated the effects of different N carriers and their levels with Zn on dry matter yields and concentration and uptake of N, P, K, Zn, Fe, Cu, and Mn in pearl millet. Data reported in this paper refer to the interaction effects of N and Zn levels on dry matter yields and concentration and uptake of N and Zn in pearl millet. At Haryana Agricultural University, Hissar, India, a pot culture experiment was conducted with 0, 100, and 200 ppm N and 0, 5, 10, and 20 ppm Zn applied as NH4 Cl and ZnCl2, respectively. Responses of N and Zn were observed up to 200 and 10 ppm, respectively, and at 20 ppm Zn dry matter yield decreased. At 200 ppm N the increases with 10 ppm Zn over 0 ppm Zn were 16.3, 21.4, and 36.4% in dry matter yields of leaves, stems, and roots, respectively. Zinc had no effect on dry matter yields in the absence of N. Nitrogen produced a synergistic effect on Zn concentration of leaves and stems and an antagonistic one on roots, whereas Zn had an antagonistic relationship on N concentration in leaves and roots. Nitrogen and Zn interaction on N concentration of stem and roots suggested that Zn was synergistic up to 10 ppm in the absence of N and antagonistic in the presence of 100 and 200 ppm applied N. Uptake of N and Zn increased up to 200 ppm N, but Zn application had no effect on uptake of N by leaves and stems. Zinc uptake was found, in order: leaves > roots > stems. Regression equations to predict dry matter yields, concentration, and uptake, of N and Zn have been calculated and reported.
