Response Of The Pigeonpea (Cajanus Cajan (L.) Millspaugh) To Nitrogen Application And Temporary Waterlogging

Year: 1992

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Short-duration pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millspaugh, cv. ICPL 87)) \nresponded to applied N by increasing its shoot and rwt growth in a Vertisol field at ICRISAT \nCenter in India. However. growth of shoot and roots was impaired and N concentration in leaf \nwas decreased by short-ten (three days) waterlogging. During the recovery phase \npigeonpa developed new adventitious rwts around the base of tap root with new nodules. \nTherefore waterlogged pigeonpea had higher total nodule activity than control plants and \nthere were no differences in N concentration in ieaf at 40 days after the termination of \nwaterlogging.
