Inheritance of photo-sensitivity in pigeonpea [PDF]
Indian Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding (The), 2021 Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] is a short-day legume species and the late maturing genotypes are more photosensitive than early types. To generate information about the inheritance of photo-sensitivity, this study was conducted under natural and artificially extended (16 h) photo-periods using F1, F2 and BC1F1 generations.
