Opis

Fenugreek has three culinary uses: as a herb, spice and vegetable and also used in several Ayurvedic medicines. However, in present days, drought or moisture stress is a major constraints in crop production and its cultivation is still dependent on rainfall and conserved moisture. Thus, when genotypes are being screened for their tolerance to moisture stress, the overall yield potential under stress as well as the effect of stress on individual yield component should be considered. This helps not only in identifying the genotypes having high yield under stress but also assist in formulating the breeding strategies to increase the tolerance against stress. So, In this book, the detailed information provided about the major aspects of- genetic variability among genotypes, character association among different characters under normal and moisture stress conditions and to identify the superior genotypes for moisture stress based on different tolerance indices- TOL, SSI, STI, MP, GMP, YI, SSPI, K1STI and K2STI. This is my promise that after reading this book all aspects related to these topics will be cleared. I hope that you will enjoy this book.
