Pots with ICPL 85010 were kept at a distance of 0.5 m from the air coolers, while those with male-sterile plants were placed 3 m away from the pollen source. Pod setting was observed in unbagged open branches. GMS and CMS plants produced an average pod count of 3.25 and 5.0 pods/plant. This is the first reported occurrence of wind pollination in pigeon pea. 2001 Article PeerReviewed application/pdf en http://oar.icrisat.org/1790/1/IndJGenet61_3_279-280_2001.pdf Kumar, R V and Saxena, K B (2001) First report of wind pollination in pigeonpea.
