Abstract: A field experiment was conducted on the Influence of Boron Molybdenum and Nickel on Total Dry matter and partitioning of blackgram (Vigna mungo L. Hepper) at Agricultural college farm, Bapatla during rabi, 2017-18. It consisted of eight treatments of micronutrient application viz., control (T1), B (T2), Mo (T3), Ni (T4), B+Mo (T5), B+Ni (T6), Mo+Ni (T7) and B+Mo+Ni (T8) with randomized block design concept and replicated thrice. The results revealed that found increased total dry matter with B, Mo and combination treatments T5 to T8. Root and pod biomass increased by Mo alone and combination treatments. Biomass of leaf and total plant increased by both individual and combination treatments. The increase in seed yield over control (1257.1 kg ha-1) was high in combination of three nutrients (2144.5 kg ha-1) and B+Mo application (1973.0 kg ha-1). B and Mo individual application also increased the yield by 1.1 and 1.2 folds respectively. Ni application alone had no influence on yield.
