EFFECT OF PLANTING DATE ON THE MORPHOLOGY OF PIGEONPEA (Cajanus cajan L.)

Abstract

An experiment was conducted with six pigeonpea cultivars in three different sowing datos viz., In February, June and Soplombor to study the allorod morphology. It was found that the first sowing (Feb) recorded higher plant height, more number of branches, leaves than the other two sowings. The total dry matter accumulation was also found to be high in the first sowing. Sowing differences were clearly exhibited in all the morphological traits.

Keywords: Pigeonpea, Morphology, Planting date.
