New pigeonpea study identifies key traits for higher crop yields!
The study looked at different pigeon pea plants to see which ones had the best traits for high yield. They found that traits like number of pods per plant, harvest index, and grain yield were the most important for getting a lot of produce. Some traits, like days to maturity and plant height, were easier to pass down to the next generation. This means that by choosing plants with these good traits, farmers can grow better pigeon pea crops.
