Adaptability studies with mungbean (Vigna radiata) to identify suitable genotypes for summer cultivation in Bangladesh

  • 1. Plant Genetics Div., Institute of Nuclear Agriculture, Mymensingh, Bangladesh

Description

Time sowing experiments can provide excellent information about adaptability and yielding capacity of germplasm, if appropriate observations are made. Such an experiment was carried out with 60 strains of mungbean with 16 sowings over the year. Productivity per day appeared to be a most useful selection criterion in this study. (author)
