Ameliorative role of foliar Zn-lysine application on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) stressed by Tannery Wastewater.

ABSTRACT: Tannery industries discharge a high concentration of chromium (Cr) along with other heavy metals, which are hazardous for all life forms. With increasing shortage of freshwater, tannery effluent is frequently used for crop an irrigation, causing damage to plants' health. In order to address this challenge, amino acid chelate fertilizer was used to investigate the impact on wheat crops against tannery waste water. Tannery wastewater (TW) was used at different levels such as 0%, 25%, 50%, and 100% with an amendment of foliar Zn-lysine (Zn-lys) at30 mg/L. This research highlighted the positive correlation of Zn-lysine on the morpho-physiological, biochemical, and gas exchange traits under different levels of tannery wastewater. The findings of this study showed that the application of Cr-rich
