note: The INTSORMIL Program at Kansas State Univ. provided
financial support for this study and the vapotranspiration Lab., Dep. of Agronomy, Kansas, the facilities to carry out the work. The ICRISAT (India) granted the senior author (PS) study leave. W. D. Stegmeier (Fort Hays Exp. Stn., Hays, Kans.) provided pearl millet seed for this study
abstract: Ten Pennisetum americanum genotypes differing in plant morphology were grown under both irrigated and nonirrigated treatments in Kansas, USA, and leaf temperature, canopy temperature (Tc), canopy minus air temperature (Tc - Ta), leaf water potential, leaf diffusion resistance, water use and grain yield were evaluated. Significant differences were found between genotypes for grain yield, Tc and Tc - Ta only in the irrigated treatment. From correlation studies it is suggested that average afternoon Tc and Tc - Ta as observed in a nonstressed environment can effectively be used as a technique to screen genotypes for grain yield and grain yield stability (nonirrigated grain yield : irrigated grain yield)
