Yield losses due to drought are highly variable in nature depending on its timing, intensity, and duration, coupled with other locationspecific environmental factors such as irradiance and temperature. The effects of drought on groundnut are manifested in several ways, affecting both quantity and quality of the crop. Water deficits, depending on the timing of occurrence, can cause significant reduction in yield by affecting physiological processes such as nitrogen fixation, photosynthesis, and calcium uptake by developing pods....................... date: 2002 date_type: published publisher: International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics place_of_pub: Patancheru, Andhra Pradesh, India pagerange: 147-151 pages: 208 refereed: TRUE isbn: 92-9066-448-7. book_title: Field Screening for Drought Tolerance Proceedings of an International Workshop on related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?hl=en&q=allintitle%3A+%22Field+Screening+for+Drought+Tolerance+in+Groundnut%22&as_sdt=0%2C5&as_ylo=&as_vis=0 related_url_type: author citation: Nigam, S N and Nageswara Rao, R C and Wright, G C (2002) Field Screening for Drought Tolerance in Groundnut.
