Distribution of Staminate and Hermaphrodite Flowers and Fruit-Set in the Canopy of Cashew Genotypes

Production of staminate(S) and hermaphrodite (H) flowers was studied in the north, east, south and west sides of the cashew tree canopy from December 2003 to May 2005 at S.G. College of Agriculture and Research Station, IGKVV, Jagdalpur (C.G.). Flower production was recorded daily on selected plants...
