Three genotypes of alfalfa viz. Medicago sativa (Zhongmu No. 1, Zhongmu No. 2) and M. varia (Caoyuan No. 3) grown in the filed were investigated for the contribution of pod wall and leaves by shading all pods and leaves on July 15, 20 and 25, respectively. Date was recorded for total pod weight (TPW), pod wall weight (PWW), seed weight per pod (SWP), seed number per pod (SNP) and single seed we...

in order to evaluate times and rate applications of zinc fertilizer on quantity and quality of faba bean, an experiment was carried out to form factorial in randomized of complete block design with four replications at farm research of gonbad kavous university during 2009 – 2010. two times of application were including before flowering and beginning of pod setting and five rates of application ...

Pod shattering resistance index (SRI) is a key factor affecting the mechanical harvesting of rapeseed. Research on the differences in pod shattering resistance levels of various rapeseed varieties can provide a theoretical basis for varietal breeding and application in mechanical harvesting. The indicators on pod shattering resistance including pod morphology and wall components were evaluated ...

Screening of twenty-four candidate plus trees from naturally available Pongamia pinnata genetic resources was carried out to elucidate the genetic variation and relationship of pod and seed traits on germination capacity to select the best planting material for higher productivity. The experiment conducted at Forest Research Centre, Institute of Forest Productivity Mandar, Ranchi during 2005-20...

Thirty genotypes of Dolichos bean (Lablab purpureus) were evaluated to study the genetic variability on yield, yield contributing and related characters viz. days to 50% flowering, days to first pod set, days to maturity, number of pods per cluster, pod length, width of pod, weight of 10 green pods, number of single podded clusters per plant, number of pods per plant and protein content. The ra...

This study shows that enhancement of soil fertility along with the yield of chickpea due to nodulation by the Rhizobium is possible to some extent. Data on plant height (cm) at maturity, primary branches/plant, days to flower, pods/plant, pod dry weight/plant (g), seeds/pod, seed dry weight/pod (g), 50 seeds weight (g), nodules/plant, fresh weight of nodules/plant and dry weight of nodules/plan...

microsatellite markers were used to identify informative markers associated with traits lattice shape of pod, belly shape in pod, pod length, pod width, grain number per pod, grain weight, grain weight/pod weight, grain length, grain width, pod number per plant, grain number per plant, pod weight per plant, grain weight per plant in peanut. thirteen ssr primer pairs amplified 80 alleles among 6...
