Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a green pod-bearing plant belongs to
family leguminosae. Peas are highly rich in protein, manganese,
dietary fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, vitamin B1 and folate. The
high amount of vitamin K1 from green peas makes them very important
for bone health. Peas are widely grown as a cool season vegetable
crop. Pea plants are highly sensitive to the summer heat. Moringa
leaf is also a rich source of ascorbates, carotenoids, phenolics,
potassium and calcium which have plant growth promoting
capabilities and are being applied as exogenous plant growth
enhancers. Antioxidants such as ascorbic acid and glutathione,
which are found at high concentrations in moringa chloroplasts and
other cellular compartments, are crucial for plant defense against
oxidative stress. It is therefore hypothesized that leaf extract
from moringa, having a number of plant growth promoters, mineral
nutrients and vitamins in a naturally balanced composition, which
may promote the pea growth and extend its fruit bearing period.
This study was conducted to monitor the impact of exogenous
application of MLE (moringa leaf extract) on the growth and yield
performance of pea.
