Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during rabi/summer season of 2016-17 at the University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad to study theresponse of moisture stress on the root nodule activity and pod yield of rabi/summer groundnut genotypes. Treatments comprised of fourwater regimes as main plots viz. I1: Control i.e., seven irrigations at 15 days interval from sowing to 105 DAS, I2: Stress at pegging stagei.e., withdrawal of one irrigation between 45 - 60 DAS, I3: Stress at pegging and pod filling stage i.e., withdrawal of two irrigations between45-75 DAS, I4: Stress at pegging, pod filling and kernel development stage i.e., withdrawal of four irrigations from 45-105 DAS. The studyalso had four genotypes as sub-plots viz. G1: Dh-86, G2: Dh-101, G3: K-9 and G4: G2-52. Among the water regimes, I2, a mild stress withone irrigation skipped at pegging stage (I2) recorded significantly higher root fresh weight (4.35 g plant-1), dry weight (1...
