Abstract: A pots experiment was conducted at Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture Technology and Sciences during 2012, to study Effect of Zinc and Boron on Growth, Yield and Quality of Brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) cv: Rutika. The experiment consisted of 9 treatments laid out in randomized block design with three replications 3 times the important finding of present investigation is given below. The individual treatment of 5 mg Zinc, 10 mg Zinc, 5 mg Boron and 10 mg Boron and treatments combination 5 mg Zn + 5 mg B, 5 mg Zn + 10 mg B, 10 mg Zn + 5 mg B and 10 mg Zn + 10 mg B per Kg soil was given in brinjal pots the growth parameters like tallest plants, maximum number of plant, number of leaf, number of branches and highest plant maximum number of flower and yield parameters like maximum number of fruit per plant and maximum fresh weight and dry weight per fruit was obtained in yield Brinjal influenced by treatments T8 ( 10 mg Zn + 10 mg B) and was significantly superior over rest of the treatments. The physiological parameters like the Chlorophyll a, b, carotenoid, anthocyanin and protein was recorded maximum in treatment T8 (10 mg Zn + 10 mg B) and was significantly superior over rest of the treatment.
