Abstract

Some ionic and biochemical responses of lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) under phosphorus deficient condition were studied. Seedlings were raised in solution culture containing phosphorus and without phosphorus (P-deficiency). Phosphorus deficiency decreased Ca­2+ and Fe2+ accumulation and slightly decreased Mg2+ accumulation in root and shoot of lentil. Phosphorus deficiency caused a decrease in accumulation of total sugars in leaf and stem but increased in root. Accumulation of total soluble proteins was depressed in lentil following P-deficiency treatment. Phosphorus deficiency increased total amino acid contents in both root and shoot.
