e2“low (without application of Zn fertilizer)”
e3“The mean seed yield, seed Zn concentration, and seed Zn uptake of the genotypes increased from 1.71 to 2.12 t ha−1, 32.4 to 43.0 mg kg−1, and 54.9 to 90.6 g ha−1, respectively, with application of Zn”

Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Zinc application improved plant height, branches per plant and pods per plant of pigeonpea genotypes.
- Intervention effect Zinc application improved seeds per pod and 100-seed weight of pigeonpea genotypes.
- Intervention effect Zinc application increased seed Zn concentration of pigeonpea genotypes from 32.4 to 43.0 mg kg−1.
- Intervention effect Zinc application increased seed Zn uptake of pigeonpea genotypes from 54.9 to 90.6 g ha−1.
- Observation The seed yield efficiency index of pigeonpea genotypes varied from 67.0 to 92.5.
- Observation The zinc uptake efficiency index of pigeonpea genotypes varied from 47.0 to 69.9.
- Observation Virsa Arhar-1, GT-1, GT-101, SKNP 05-05, BDN-2, AAUT 2007-04, BSMR 853, T 15-15, DT 23 and Pusa 9 are efficient and responsive to zinc.
- Observation ICPL 87119 and PKV Trombay are efficient and non-responsive to zinc.
- Observation AKT 8811 and Hisar Paras are inefficient and responsive to zinc.
- Observation AAUT 2007-10, JKM 7, Hisar Manak, C 11, Hisar HO2-60 and GAUT 93-17 are inefficient and non-responsive to zinc.
- Recommendation The efficient and responsive pigeonpea genotypes are the most useful under low soil zinc conditions.
- Recommendation The inefficient and responsive pigeonpea genotypes could be utilized in plant breeding programs.
