Abstract

The seaweeds play a vital function in marine environment and renewable assets of marine surroundings. Many of the seaweeds used as food, fooder and fertilizer. The present investigation focused on the brown seaweed Sargassum ilicifolium used as fertilizer in the   Lycopersicum  esculentum  L . The  effect  of  foliar  extract  and  different concentration  (10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%)  control  distilled  water. And the  effect  of  above  thought  foliar application  on  the  growth   and  photosynthetic  pigments  of  45  days  old  seedlings  of  Lycopersicum  esculentum L  parameters  were  analyzed. Among  the  five  methods  of  treatments  25% of  Sargassum  ilicifolium (turner) C. Agardh extract  is  very  effective compare  to  control  and other  concentration.
