Abstract: A pot experiment was conducted during Rabi session to study the effect of different concentration of Vanadium (0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 ppm) on morphological and biochemical character of two varieties of sweet corn (Zea mays L.) Madhuri & Phule Madhu. Vanadium was applied at 30 DAS & at flowering time. Results showed that the maximum improvement in morphological and biochemical characters was observed in variety Madhuri at 20 ppm Vanadium as compared to control and the Minimum effect was observed in variety Phule Madhu at 100 ppm. Vanadium applied to plant in low concentration (20 ppm) resulted in improvement of morphological, biochemical character of sweet corn.
