Evaluation of seed and forage yield of Lathyrus sativus L.in China and Ethiopia

摘要：

Grass pea is an important grain crop in both Ethiopia and China due to its tolerance to drought.The seed yield of grass pea is usually stable due to its tolerance to adverse environments, but it is influenced by genotype and environment ( Hanbury et al., 1999).Detailed information on diversity in seed and forage yield due to genotypic differences is urgently required to efficiently utilize the genetic potential of forage grasspea collections for crop improvement through selection or hybridization.
