Estimation of Chlorophyll Pigment in Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (Cluster bean) in Different Soil Samples | Chapter 7 | Research Aspects in Biological Science Vol. 9

 In the current study, the chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and total chlorophyll values from Cyamopsis tetragonoloba plant leaves grown in diverse soil samples were calculated. Chlorophyll, a green pigment, is present in young branches and leaves of plants and trees. It is essential to quantify the amount of leaf chlorophyll and the type of photosynthetic mechanism that are present since these factors influence crop production and yield. Chlorophyll is created by a series of enzymatic processes, and temperatures that are too high or low might stop the enzyme from working or even cause the original chlorophyll to be destroyed. It was discovered that cluster bean, or Cyamopsis tetragonoloba, growing in agricultural soil has a high total chlorophyll concentration and a low level in deforested soil. The physiological state of plants under water and salinity stress is determined by the chlorophyll a:b ratio. For Cyamopsis tetragonoloba plants grown in deforested soil, the chlorophyll a:b ratio is high, while it is low in agricultural soil.
