摘要:Maize and Millet Research Institute (MMRI) situated in Yousuf wala,District Sahiwal,Punjab,Pakistan was selected to grow nine different hybrids/cultivars of millet for study to comprehend the variable concentration of macro,micro and trace and toxic elements in their grains. Wet digestion method was used for the preparation of samples and flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer for analysis of eleven major and minor elements. High values of macro-elements i.e. sodium and potassium was found in ICMP-451 and magnesium in ICMP-53506. The high value of essential micro-elements i.e.zinc (50mg/kg),manganese (8mg/kg),and copper (8mg/kg) was calculated in ICMP-53506,Bullo-94-1,and ICMP-83720 respectively. In case of trace and toxic micro-elements,high concentration of nickel,cobalt,chromium and cadmium was found in O.B.V,Bullo-7704,ICMP-83401,and ICMP-83720 in the edible part of millet plants (grains) cultivars respectively..
