We compared the effects of spring seeding date on stand density, crop growth, seed yield, water-use-efficiency, and grain quality of three pulse crops [chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) and pea (Pisum sativum L.)] grown at

Minimizing the exposure of an annual crop to abiotic stresses may increase seed yield. A study was conducted to determine the effect of high temperature stress during reproductive development on pod fertility, seed set, and seed yield of chickpea (Ci

Seed cost is a major input expense for the production of kabuli chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) due to its large seed size. Use of small seeds could reduce production costs because a lower volume of seeds would be needed per unit area. This study deter

The use of bacterial inoculants can increase root nodulation and the seed yield of annual legumes. A six site-year study was conducted to determine the effect of formulations (peat-based powder vs. granules) and placement in the soil (seed-row vs. si
