Field experiments were conducted on lentil (Lens culinaris) during the 1985-87 seasons to determine the effect of some phenolic compounds (G-salt, H-acid, R-salt, and 1,2,4-acid) at 100 or 200 microg/ml on vegetative growth and development. All the compounds enhanced pod number and seed yield per plant at harvest, but 1,2,4-acid was the most effective. None of the treatments caused any significant increase in 1000-seed weight. Except with G-salt, the dry matter accumulation in plants was enhanced with all the treatments, but was highest with 1,2,4-acid. Partitioning coefficients increased with G-salt and 1,2,4-acid. Analyses of the harvest seeds indicated enhancement in the level of the total soluble sugar, starch, amino acid contents, and protein contents (both buffer and alkali soluble) at either of the concentration of the four phenolic compounds
