The correlation of leaf stomata number and some quantitative characters on mungbean

English. Correlation of leaf stomatal number with quantitative characters in 20 mungbean genotypes was determined at Jambegede in the dry season of 1998. The trial was arranged in randomized block design, replicated two times. The results showed that there were stomata on both surfaces of mungbean leaves. The number and density of stomata on upper surface was less than that on the lower surface. Strong positive correlations were observed between number of stomata and stomata density, plant height and flowering date. No correlation was observed between the number of stomata with pod number per plant, yield per plant, and seed size. There were high significantly positive correlation between yield per plant and pod number per plant and seed size, but there was no correlation between pod per plant and seed size. Selection for yield potential could not be determined based on the number of leaf stomata

Indonesian. Penelitian korelasi jumlah stomata daun dengan beberapa karakter kuantitatif pada kacang hijau telah dilaksanakan di Jambegede pada MK 1998. Penelitian disusun dalam rancangan acak kelompok, dua ulangan, dengan 20 genotipe kacang hijau sebagai perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa stomata daun kacang hijau terdapat pada permukaan atas dan bawah. Jumlah dan kerapatan stomata pada permukaan atas lebih rendah daripada permukaan bawah daun. Terdapat korelasi positif sangat nyata antara jumlah stomata dengan kerapatan stomata, tinggi tanaman dan umur berbunga, namun tidak ada korelasi dengan jumlah polong per tanaman, hasil per tanaman, dan ukuran biji. Antara hasil per tanaman dengan jumlah polong per tanaman dan ukuran biji terdapat korelasi positif sangat nyata, namun tidak terdapat korelasi yang nyata antara jumlah polong per tanaman dengan ukuran biji. Seleksi untuk potensi hasil tidak dapat dilakukan berdasarkan jumlah stomata daun
