Abstract

Studies on the effect of moisture stress in six different genotypes was carried out. The pot grown grape plants subjected to two levels of moisture stress were analysed for N, P and K in leaves at the end of the experiment. The N, P and K content in the leaves of all the genotypes decreased as a result of moisture stress. However, in Dogridge, N content in the leaves of stressed plants was almost on par with the well watered plants.
