SEASONAL VARIATION ON THE PRODUCTIVITY OF CLUSTER BEAN [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.(Taub)]

An investigation was carried in two seasons, season I during (July-Sep) 2015 and season II during (Feb-April) 2016 with thirty-five genotypes of cluster bean to identify superior genotypes for further crop breeding programmes. The results revealed that the season I showed relatively superior mean performance with respect to plant height, number of pods, and pod yield per plant when compared to season II. During season I, genotypes CT-31, CT-26, CT-32, CT-27 showed better performance in terms of pod yield per plant,and , number of pods per plant. During season II, genotypes CT-31, CT-26, CT-33 showed better performance in terms of pod yield per plant, number of pods per plant
