Abstract

Biological yield and seed yield had significant positive correlation with primary branches, relative growth rate, net assimilation rate, total chlorophyll content and with relative water content (RWC) and significant negative correlation with membrane injury index (MII). Production of high biomass was significantly and positively correlated with seed yield (r=0.639**).
