Other claims from this paper (14)
- Observation The light extinction coefficient K S of chickpea was 0.5.
- Observation The average radiation use efficiency of chickpea was 1 g MJ −1.
- Intervention effect Plant density had no effect on the radiation use efficiency of chickpea.
- Association Temperature had some effects on the radiation use efficiency of chickpea.
- Association Solar radiation and vapour pressure deficit had no effect on radiation use efficiency once temperature was corrected for.
- Observation Radiation use efficiency of chickpea was constant during the whole crop cycle.
- Observation A biphasic pattern was found for biomass partitioning between leaves and stems in chickpea.
- Observation At lower total dry matter, 54 % of biomass produced was allocated to chickpea leaves.
- Association At higher total dry matter, the biomass share allocated to chickpea leaves decreased to 28 %.
- Observation Between first-pod and first-seed, 27 % of biomass produced went to pods in chickpea.
- Observation Between first-pod and first-seed, 13 % of biomass produced went to leaves in chickpea.
- Observation Between first-seed and maturity, 83 % of biomass was partitioned to pods in chickpea.
- Method / resource Fixed biomass partitioning coefficients are less effective after first-seed than before this stage in chickpea.
- Association Temperature, solar radiation and plant density did not affect biomass partitioning in chickpea.
