| Abstract | ||
| The present work was conducted to study the effect of different concentrations of nickel nitrate(0-50 mg/L) on the growth and content of some trace elements (Cu,Zn,Fe,Mn,Co,Cd) of tomato plant. Results showed that treating tomato plants with (10mg/L) gave a significant increase in plant height and chlorophyll concentration, as well as the content of (Cu,Zn,Fe,Mn,Co,Cd),while the plants which treated with nickel nitrate(25mg/L) caused a significant reduce of plant height and chlorophyll concentration and some trace elements content. The plants which treated with(50mg/L) of nickel nitrate was highly toxic and caused the death of plants. | ||
