Abstract
The investigation entitled “Morphophysiological and biochemical characteristics of crop associated with resistance to pesticide applications” was carried out at ICAR-Indian Institute of Soil Science, Bhopal (M.P.) during 2015-2016. The major objective of this study was to study the impact of different concentrations of pesticide chlorpyrifos viz. 0.25%, 0.75% and 1.25% on plant morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics of soybean wheat and ashwagandha. The impacts of foliar spray of pesticide on growth and metabolism of plants viz. soybean, wheat and ashwagandha were studied under the control condition using chlorpyrifos. It was observed that the increased rate of pesticide treatment significantly decreased the morphological parameter i.e., plant height, number of leaves, leaf area leaf dry weight, stem dry weight, root dry weight, in soybean, wheat and ashwagandha.
