“…Also, Austin (1988) found that yield advantage of modern cereal cultivars over old ones is close to 40% at all levels of soil nitrogen. High DM yield and grain yield of cultivar Norriina compared with low DM yield and high grain yield of the modem cultivar Reno is an example of the existence of genetic differences between cultivars in their allocation of the assimilates within the plant recorded by many previous experiments (e.g., Vose 1983). The finding that older cultivars Apu and Noaona had higher nitrogen con-…”

“…Gerloff (1987) noted that intraspecific variation in growth under Volume 4, Number 2, 1989 nutrient-deficient conditions could result from genotypic differences in nutrient uptake, movement across the root to the xylem, and distribution and remobilization in the shoot, as well as from differences in the efficiency of nutrient utilization in metabolism and growth.

These experiments have generally involved only a few genotypes and thus are unsuitable for the estimation of genetic correlations.…”

Few plant breeding programs involve attempts to develop varieties specifically adapted to low-input cropping systems. Plant breeders generally select varieties in highly fertile, weed-free, densely seeded environments. However, alleles needed for achieving maximum yield in low-input environments often differ from those required in highinput conditions. Thus, when effective selection can be undertaken under low-input conditions, breeding programs specifically targeted at low-input environments should produce the best varieties for those environments. Experimental protocols for identifying such situations are described in this review. These involve (a) testing breeding lines under low-and high-input conditions, (b) estimating both the degree to which yields from the two types of environment are controlled by the same alleles and the relative accuracy with which superior genotypes can be identified in low-and high-input environments, and (c) predicting the direct and indirect responses to selection at each input level. On the basis of published data, it seems feasible to develop corn hybrids specifically adapted to production with lower rates of N application than are now commonly used in the United States.

“…Intra-and inter specific differences in growth, grain yield, and nutrient use efficiency including dry bean have been reported in many plant species (Gerloff and Gabelman, 1983;Vose, 1984;Fageria, 1997, 1999;Baligar et al, 2001;Fageria, 2009). Genetic and physiological components of plants have profound effects on nutrient use efficiency in plants (Clark and Duncan, 1991;Gerloff and Gabelman, 1983;Vose, 1984;Baligar et al, 2001;Fageria, 2009). Differences in P use efficiency are related to their ability to grow in soils with low P and this is attributed to their unique root system morphology, root hair density, and root exudates (Baligar et al, 2001).…”

“…Differences in P use efficiency are related to their ability to grow in soils with low P and this is attributed to their unique root system morphology, root hair density, and root exudates (Baligar et al, 2001). Nutrient use efficiency differences in crop genotypes are related to differences in absorption, translocation, shoot demand, dry matter production per unit of nutrient absorbed, and environmental interactions (Baligar et al, 2001;Clark and Duncan, 1991;Gerloff and Gableman, 1983;Vose, 1984).…”

2 Dry bean along with rice is a staple food for the population of South America. In this tropical region beans are grown on Oxisols and phosphorus (P) is one of the most yield limiting factors for dry bean production on these soils. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate P use efficiency in 20 elite dry bean genotypes grown at deficient (25 mg P kg −1 soil) and sufficient (200 mg P kg −1 ) levels of soil P. Grain yields and yield components were significantly increased with P fertilization and, interspecific genotype differences were observed for yield and yield components. The grain yield efficiency index (GYEI) was having highly significant quadratic association with grain yield. Based on GYEI most P use efficient genotypes were CNFP 8000, CNFP 10035, CNFP10104, CNFC 10410, CNFC 9461, CNFC 10467, CNFP 10109 and CNFP 10076 and most inefficient genotypes were CNFC 10438, CNFP 10120, CNFP 10103, and CNFC 10444. Shoot dry weight, number of pods per plant, 100-grain weights and number of seeds per pod was having significant positive association with grain yield. Hence, grain yield of dry bean can be improved with the improvement of these plant traits by adopting appropriate management practices. Soil pH, extractable P and calcium (Ca) saturation were significantly influenced by P treatments. Based on regression equation, optimum pH value in water was 6.6, optimum P in Mehlich 1 extraction solution was 36 mg kg −1 and optimum Ca saturation value was 37% for dry maximum bean yield.
