Influence of neutron irradiation and phosphorus on the performance of groundnut [<i>Arachis hypogaea</i> (L.)] genotypes grown on a P-deficient alfisols at Samaru, Nigeria
Abstract:There is a dearth of information on the effective irradiation dose for inducing variability in groundnut genotypes. A screen house experiment was conducted at the Department of Soil Science, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria (ABU). It was to investigate the effect of induced genetic variability (by neutron irradiation) and four phosphorus rates (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg P 2 O 5 ha -1 ) on the performance of some groundnut [(Arachis hypogaea (L.)] genotypes grown on a P-deficient Alfisols at Samaru, Zaria. A fraction o… Show more
