Maize (Zea mays L.) may be a widely cultivated major cereal crop, and a model for a monocotyledonous C4 plant with a considerable physiological and anatomical information base. After nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, the fourth leading plant nutrient which is incresingly being accepted is sulphur. It is ranked along with nitrogen and phosphorus and also is a key element in the formation of proteins.In sulphur, the dry weight basis of plants increases in order gramineae sp. < leguminoceae < crucifera and the demand for optimal growth varies between 0.1 and 0.5% .Sulphur play crucial role in oil synthesis and chlorophyll formation. Under sulphur lacking conditions the economics of the fertilizer applied and the ratio of applied NPK fertilizer. Therefore, higher crop yields may not be sustained.Varietal variation in uptake characteristics has been reported and should represent a possible for breeding improved sulfur use efficiency. Responses to sulfur-limitation which occur at several levels in overlapping succession are described. These include changes in organic phenomenon focussed on cellular processes like uptake through to wholesale changes in root: shoot biomass allocation and influences on necrobiosis programming and therefore the formation of aerenchyma. These provide mechanisms to maximise uptake, enhance utilization efficiency and moderate, although ultimately cannot prevent, an enhanced susceptibility to abiotic and biotic stresses.
