A study looked at different lentil plants to see what factors affect how many seeds they produce. They found that the number of pods on a plant has the biggest direct impact on seed yield, while plant height has a negative effect. The number of seeds per plant also indirectly affects seed yield by influencing how long it takes for the plant to mature. Breeders should focus on increasing the number of pods per plant to improve seed yield.
