Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation The harvest index decrease with closer spacing did not occur in Type II dry beans.
- Observation The harvest index decrease with closer spacing did not occur in Type III dry beans.
- Association Reproductive node accumulation before anthesis, biological yield, harvest index and leaf area were important for high dry bean yields.
- Association Within growth habit and spacing combinations, flowering duration, branch, leaf and raceme numbers, and stem length could not predict dry bean yield.
