Nutrition of <I>Robinia pseudacacia</I> L. as Influenced by Phosphorus and Molybdenum

Abstract

Effect or four levels of phosphorus (0, 30, 45 and 60 kg P₂O₅ ha^-1) and three levels of molybdenum (0,40 and 80 g Mo ha^-1) has been studied on concentration and uptake of N, P, K and Mo by R. pseudacacia seedlings. N, P, K and Mo concentration as well as their uptake enhanced significantly with the application of phosphorus whereas with molybdenum application, only P, K and Mo showed significant enhancement. However, combined application of both, phosphorus and molybdenum proved highly effective in increasing P, K and Mo content and uptake in R. pseudacacia
