ABSTRACT
A study was carried out on growth, photosynthetic pigments, and yield attributing and seed characteristics of Arachis hypogaea L. (Cv. SB-11). The treatments comprised of different concentrations (5, 50, 100 and 200 ppm) of Sulfosalicylic acid (SSA). The results showed that 50 ppm concentration of foliar applied SSA effectively promoted the growth parameters, photosynthetic pigments (chl a, chl b, total chl, carotenoids and chlorophyll stability index), yield parameters and seed protein and seed oil contents of groundnut. Similarly significant decrease in severity of tikka disease was reported with 50 ppm SSA. SSA 100 ppm profound better influence on the number of branches, height of plant and the shelling percentage. It could be concluded that SSA proved to be beneficial in promoting plant growth and yield and in inducing systemic resistance against tikka disease in groundnut.
