Sažetak
Radiation plays a crucial role for growth and yield of wheat. A field experiment was conducted at the Field Laboratory of Agrotechnology Discipline of Khulna University in Bangladesh during November 2018 to March 2019 to study the effect of radiation levels and plant population on growth and yield attributes of wheat. The study was set out in the randomized complete block design with four radiation levels (full sunlight, 75% light, 55% light, 25% light) and three plant population densities (160 plant/m2, 200 plant/m2, 230 plant/m2) that replicated thrice. Growth and yield attributes of wheat were generally similar between two light levels (full sunlight, 75% light) and two plant densities (200 plant/m2, 230 plant/m2). However, the attributes were usually minimum at 25% light. The interaction effect of full sunlight or 75% light with optimal (200 plant/m2) or maximal (230 plant/m2) plant densities produced statistically similar plant height, leaf number, tiller number, total dry matter, grain yield, straw yield, and biological yield. Therefore, combination of 75% light with 230 plant/m2 is suggested for growing wheat in light limited areas and in agroforestry system with acceptable yield.
