Evaluation of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) genotypes under limited moisture stress conditions

A field experiment was conducted with ten fenugreek genotypes comprised of some prominent mutant line and already released varieties. The aim of this study was collection and screening of promising genotypes which have tolerance to limited moisture stress conditions during active plant growth stage. The screening criteria was based on morphophysiological parameters including fresh weight, shoot weight, root weight, shoot length, root length, no. of branches, shoot-root length and weight ratio leaf area, water potential, canopy temperature, difference between canopy and air temperature and chlorophyll content under optimal irrigation regime and moisture stress regime at flowering and post
