ABSTRACT
Comparative performance of two varieties of Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] viz. RAUS-5 and JS-335 were studied with respect to plant height, branch number/plant, and leaf area, dry weight of plant, RGR, LAR, NAR, SLA and shoot/root ratio. RAUS-5 appeared better performing in a variety of light conditions.
Key words :Growth performance, Light intensities, Soybean.
