The retrieval effect of microbial fertilizers in Nickel chloride treated Pennisetum americanum L. seedlings were grown in pots filled with mixture of red, black and sandy soil. Simultaneously, control (water) and control (6mM Nickel chloride) plants were also maintained. The effect of microbial fertilizers treatments accelerated to restore the growth of the plants. On the fresh weight basis, the addition of adsorbents caused more accumulation of chlorophyll a, b, carotenoid, and class of accessory pigments were also high in microbial fertilizers treated seedlings than the Nickel chloride alone treated control seedlings. The impact of microbial fertilizers treatments on the biochemical constituents in terms of free amino acid, soluble proteins and glucose was studied. The level of free amino acid content was high in treated seedlings. The accumulation of soluble protein in leaves is considered to be an indication of efficient metabolic status than its counter parts. Further, the scavenging enzymatic activities were decreased in increased concentration of microbial fertilizers application reveals the stress reliving nature of plants. Thus an overall assessment of plant in terms of growth, pigment composition, biochemical constituents and enzymatic activities has exhibit the retrieval efficacy of microbial fertilizers from the Nickel chloride treated Pennisetum americanum L. seedlings.
