Nickel is well thought-out to be an indispensable micronutrient for plants, however at excess concentration, it proves toxic to the plants and toxicity of this metal has been attributed to its negative effect on various physiological and biochemical parameters as photosynthesis, mineral nutrition, sugar transport and plant water relationship. In this study, it was assessed that different concentrations of nickel appreciably effect the levels of soluble sugar, proline and glycinebetaine along phosphorus metabolism in two cultivars of wheat (UP2382 and VL616) but the cultivar VL616 was ..
