Physiology of the Pea Crop (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780367384241)

Drawing on contributions from a multidisciplinary pool of plant physiologists and researchers, this book compiles current knowledge on pea crop physiology. It discusses vegetative and reproductive development, growth under non-limiting conditions, and nitrogen requirements. It explores the effects of the abiotic and biotic stresses on growth and development as well as nitrogen uptake by the plant. The book concludes with a global model of potential yield-limiting factors of the pea crop as a diagnostic tool.
