Studies on the Response of Co. 2 Green Gram (Phaseolus aureus Roxb.) to Phosphorus Application

Year: 1979

Type: article

Abstract: An experiment was laid out to study the response of green gram (Co.2) to phos phorus application under irrigation. Phosphorus application through soil increased the plant height on 45th day and at harvest but there was no difference between P levels tested. Foliar application of P decreased the height. Leaf area index and the yield com- ponents such as number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod and thousand grain weight were not influenced by P application. Neither grain yield nor stalk yield was aff- ected by P application. For a short duration variety like Co.2. P application produces little response in a soil with medium available P status.
