EFFECT OF INTERCROPPED GARLIC (ALLIUM SATIVUM) ON CHLOROPHYL CONTENTS, PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND ANTIOXIDANT ENZYMES IN PEPPER
Abstract
The effects of intercropped garlic (Allium sativum) on chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll content, leaf photosynthetic rate and antioxidant enzymes were investigated in pepper during two years study from 2011 to 2012. Physico-chemical analysis of pepper intercropped with normal garlic (sowing clove of cv. G026 for harvesting of scape and bulb) and green garlic (sowing bulb of cv. G064 for harvesting of green garlic) were compared to mono-culture cultivation of pepper. Results showed that chlorophyll a, total chlorophyll content, net photosynthetic rate and catalase activity (CAT) were significantly enhanced at p
