Antioxidant Status of Vigna mungo L. in Response to Sulfur Nutrition
Black gram (Vigna mungo L. var. DPU‐88‐31), an edible legume, was grown at 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 meq S L−1 to study the effect of deficient and excess level of sulfur on oxidative metabolism. Plants supplied by 4 meq S L−1 showed optimum yield. Sulfur deficient plants (1 and 2 meq S L−1) showed reduction in growth and chlorosis of young leaves.

Both chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] are important dietary source of protein while groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is one of the major oil crops. Globally, approximately 1.1 million grain legume accessions are conserved in genebanks, of which the ICRISAT genebank holds 49,485 accessions of cultivated species and
