Abstract

The effect of CaCO3, (0, 10, 20, 30%) and boron (0, 0.25, 0.50, 1.0, 2.0 ppra) on the distribution patterns of yield components and yield in a determinate cultivar GAUG—1 was studied. Treatment of CaCO3 gave negative mode to the patterns of yield enhancing parameters except number and percentage of pods, while B application produced favourable patterns on these parameters but suppresed the distribution of yield limiting parameters except number of effective pegs.
