Lentil yield and crop growth rate are coupled under stress but uncoupled under favourable conditions
2021-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Growth and yield can be decoupled in lentil whereby excessive vegetative growth leads to self-shading, reduced pod and seed set, low harvest index and higher risk of disease and lodging. We evaluated the degree of coupling between growth and yield in 20 lentil lines grown in eight environments varying in water and photothermal conditions returning a 10-fold yield range, from 21 to 221 g m⁻². Calibration curves bet...
