    Concept of ideal plant type (ideotype) in horsegram (Dolichos Biflorus L.)
    (Kerala Agricultural University, 1995) Swapna, M; Achamma Oommen; Namboodiri, K M N; Luckins C Babu
    The concept of an ideal plant type in horsegram was studied based on crop growth rate (CGR), net assimilation rate (NAR), leaf area index (LAI) and harvest index (HI). A plant type with peak CGR, NAR and LAI at the middle growth period was found to be the best. Efficient partitioning of the total dry matter produced towards the reproductive parts was very important for a higher harvest index.

    Cause-effect relationship of drought tolerant traits and grain yield in cowpea
    (Kerala Agricultural University, 1997) Magic Mereena; Sreekumar, S G
    Sixteen grain cowpea varieties were evaluated in a replicated field experiment at the College of Agriculture, Vellayani, Trivandrum. Estimation of cause and effect relationship of seven drought tolerant traits and grain yield revealed that varieties with high harvest index, leaf area index at vegetative period and long grain filling period will produce high grain yield under conditions of drought.
