“…However, previous studies indicated sowing rate had little effect on seed weight (Regan et al 2003). Although pods per plant were not measured in this study, it is likely that more pods developed at lower planting densities, supporting the results of previous studies (McKenzie and Hill 1995). Yield per plant is strongly and positively associated with the number of pods per plant (Sagir et al 2004).…”

Impact of cultivar, row spacing and seeding rate on ascochyta blight severity and yield of chickpea. Can. J. Plant Sci. 87: [395][396][397][398][399][400][401][402][403]. Field trials to assess the impact of chickpea type (desi vs. kabuli), row spacing and seeding rate on ascochyta blight of chickpea were conducted over 2 yr at Brooks, Alberta. A compound-leaved desi chickpea cultivar and unifoliate kabuli cultivar were sown at 20, 30 and 40 cm row spacing, and at three seeding rates (20, 40 and 60 seeds per 3 m row). Most of the variation in disease severity was associated with differences between the cultivars. Seeding rate, row spacing and their interactions had substantially smaller effects on ascochyta blight in comparison with cultivar effects. Late in the growing season, blight severity was consistently lower in the desi than the kabuli cultivar. Wide row spacing and low seeding rate reduced ascochyta blight severity and increased seed yield per plant. Wide row spacing in the first year reduced the seed yield per hectare, but row spacing did not significantly affect yield in 2005. Low in-row seeding rates increased yield only in 2004. There was a positive linear relationship between plant density and blight severity, and a negative relationship between yield per plant and both plant density and disease severity. We conclude that reduced plant population density could be one tool in a program to manage ascochyta blight of chickpea.

F. 2007. Incidence du cultivar, de l'écartement des rangs et de la densité des semis sur la gravité de l'ascochytose et le rendement du pois chiche. Can. J. Plant Sci. 87: 395-403. Pendant deux ans, les auteurs ont procédé à des essais sur le terrain, à Brooks (Alberta), afin d'évaluer l'incidence du type de pois (desi ou kabuli), de l'écartement des rangs et de la densité des semis sur l'ascochytose du pois chiche. À cette fin, ils ont semé un cultivar de pois chiche desi à feuilles composées et un second de pois chiche kabuli unifolié dans des rangs espacés de 20, 30 et 40 cm, à raison de 20, 40 et 60 graines par rang de 3 m. La majeure partie de la variation observée au niveau de la gravité de la maladie résulte des différences entre les cultivars. La densité des semis, l'é-cartement des rangs et leurs interactions ont une incidence sensiblement plus faible sur l'ascochytose. À la fin de la saison de croissance, la gravité de l'ascochytose était toujours plus faible chez les pois de type desi que chez ceux de type kabuli. Un grand espacement des rangs et une faible densité des semis atténuent la gravité de l'ascochytose tout en accroissant le rendement grainier par plant. La première année, un grand écartement des rangs a diminué le rendement grainier par hectare, mais ce paramètre n'a eu aucune incidence significative sur le rendement en 2005. Des semis moins denses dans le rang n'on...

“…Other benefits from high plant density include increased crop competition with weeds, reduced evaporation from the soil surface, and increased harvest height (Siddique and Sedgley 1987;Jettner et al 1999). In contrast, McKenzie and Hill (1995) reported a reduction in yield with increasing plant density, attributed to lower numbers of pods per plant.…”

“…Siddique & Loss (1999) also reported that the availability of more moisture in the subsoil resulted in an increase in the number of pods/plant. Many workers have found that the number of pods/plant was inversely related to plant population (Hernandez & Hill 1983;McKenzie & Hill 1995). However, the number of pods/m 2 increased as plant population increased.…”

SU MMARYThe effects of plant population (one-tenth of the optimum to four times the optimum populations in 1998/99 and 10-400 plants/m 2 in 1999/2000) and sowing depth (2, 5 and 10 cm) on yield and yield components of four grain-legumes (Cicer arietinum, Lens culinaris, Lupinus angustifolius and Pisum sativum) were studied. Seed yields were strongly positively correlated with the number of pods and seeds/m 2 in both years in all species. The mean seed weight and number of branches/plant were inversely related to plant population. There was a nearly six-fold reduction in the number of branches/plant as plant population increased, which was due to restricted branching, and not to branch senescence. Generally, the variation in yield components was species dependent. However, for all species the number of pods/m 2 and seeds/m 2 could be used as primary criteria for selection in a breeding programme.

“…Togay et al (2008) observed that the number of pods per plant affected statistically significant with Rhizobium inoculation in chickpea. These researchers noted that this trait increased from 11.50 pods per plant in non-inoculated plants to 12.35 pods per plant in inoculated plants. Malik et al (2006) and Albayrak et al (2006) reported similar results.…”

Growth analysis is still the most simple and precise method to evaluate the contribution of different ecological processes in plant development. In order to study the effects of organic and inorganic nitrogen on growth indices and yield components of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) cv. ILC 482, a spilt plot experiment based on randomized complete block design with four replications was conducted at the Experimental Farm of the Agriculture Faculty, University of Mohaghegh Ardabili, Ardebil, Iran. Experimental factors were comprised of inorganic nitrogen fertilizer at four levels (0, 50, 75 and 100 kg ha -1 ) in the main plots applied in the urea form, and two levels of inoculation with Rhizobium bacteria (with and without inoculation) as sub plots. Application of N and Rhizobium inoculation continued to have positive effect on growth indices and yield components of chickpea. Lower levels of nitrogen application and non-inoculated plants showed less growth indices including total dry matter (TDM), leaf area index (LAI), crop growth rate (CGR), relative growth rate (RGR) and net assimilation rate (NAR) while the highest values of these indices were observed at the high levels of nitrogen application and inoculated plants. The highest plant height, number of primary and secondary branches, number of pods per plant and number of grains per plant were obtained from the highest level of nitrogen fertilizer (100 kg urea ha -1 ) and Rhizobium inoculation. Application of 75 and 100 kg urea ha -1 showed no significant difference in these traits. Moreover, the highest grain yield was recorded in the inoculated plants that were treated with 75 kg urea ha -1. The results indicated that the application of suitable amounts of nitrogen fertilizer (i. e. between 50 and 75 kg urea ha -1 ) as a starter can be beneficial in improving growth, development and total yield of inoculated chickpea.
