PHOTOSYNTHESIS IN RELATION TO YIELD POTENTIAL IN BLACKGRAM

Abstract

                                Significant varietal differences were found to exist among blackgram cultivars for photosynthetic rate, total dry matter, seed yield and harvest index. Photo- synthetic rate per se alone is not responsible for yield. However higher photo- synthetic rate during pod development phase has a significant positive bearing on final yield. Higher phytomass and harvest index are also important for increased yield in blackgram.
