Effect of Urea on Photosynthesis and Yield in Mungbean

Effect of Urea on Photosynthesis and Yield in Mungbean The effect of foliar application of 0.5 % and 1.0 % urea solutions after flowering on photosynthesis and yield was examined in mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek) var. PS 16. Urea applied plants sustained higher rate of photosynthesis, retained more leaf area and this led to more dry matter production and consequently the seed yield was increased by increasing the number of pods per plant. These results are discussed in relation to source‐sink relationship in mungbean. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science Wiley

Abstract

The effect of foliar application of 0.5 % and 1.0 % urea solutions after flowering on photosynthesis and yield was examined in mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek) var. PS 16. Urea applied plants sustained higher rate of photosynthesis, retained more leaf area and this led to more dry matter production and consequently the seed yield was increased by increasing the number of pods per plant. These results are discussed in relation to source‐sink relationship in mungbean.
