Abstract

Two varieties of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), 'Early Runner' and 'Florigiant', were grown for 55 days in various nutritional regimes, using modified Hoagland's solutions, during May to August in the greenhouse with temperature and relative humidity varying from 22-35 C and 40-96 percent respectively. Typical deficiency symptoms for the nutrients calcium, magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus developed in both varieties. However, phosporus-deficient plants of 'Early Runner' variety developed spilt stems longitudinally along their axes up to the node of the last intact leaf.
