Popis: Flowering time is a key factor in determining the adaptation of crops to diverse environments. Temperature and photoperiod are the two major environmental variables that affect the length of the period between sowing and flowering and the rate of plant development. The objectives of this research were to examine the days to flowering of selected chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) accessions grown in a range of thermal regimes combined with either long or short days and to examine the interaction between photoperiod and day and night temperatures on flowering response......
