In order to investigate the influence of exogenous application of calcium (Ca) on its accumulation in finger millet, two genotypes (GPHCPB-1 and GPHCPB-45), which posses low and high grain Ca contents, respectively, were subjected to regular fertigation of varying levels of Ca in Hoagland’s nutrient medium. The responsiveness of both the genotypes towards increasing exogenous application of Ca (0.1, 5.0, 10 and 20) was determined in terms of changes in tissue Ca levels, agromorpho-physio-biochemical parameters. Sharp increase of Ca content in root, stem and spike was observed up to excess level of Ca (10 mM) in GPHCPB-1 while in case of GPHCPB-45 an increase in Ca content was observed only up to sufficient level of Ca (5 mM) and above that its accumulation remained constant or declined in both the genotypes. In case of leaf the level of Ca increased linearly at all concentrations of supplied Ca in both the genotypes. Both the genotypes behave differentially as GPHCPB-45 genotype accumulated more Ca and was also superior in root length, root dry matter accumulation, plant height and relative water content at Ca deficient condition (0.1 mM) as compared to GPHCPB-1 genotype. The continuous rise in stem diameter, biomass, seed yield, chlorophyll content, SPAD value, seed oxalic acid and phytic acid content were recorded in both the genotypes up to excess or toxic levels of supplied Ca. On the basis of present study it was concluded that Ca accumulation in plant is determined by both genetic (genotype dependent) as well as environmental factors (availability of Ca in rhizosphere).
