The chlorophyll content results revealed that the higher concentrations significantly inhibited the total chlorophyll content in horse gram seedlings.

In conclusion, the tested crop Niger plant significantly reduced the biochemicals like protein content, chlorophyll content and free amino acid contents of crop plant horse gram<em>. </em></span></p>
