A field experiment was conducted to study shoot and root growth wheat succeeding mungbean and
sorghum in relation to planting techniques and irrigation scheduling during 2003-2004 and 2004-05 at Research
Farm of CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar, Haryana India. The treatments consisted of two preceding
crops viz., sorghum as green fodder and mungbean as grain and two planting methods viz., conventional and
zero tillage in main plots and three irrigation schedules viz., irrigation at CRI + IW/CPE of 0.5, 0.7 and 0.9 in
sub plots, replicated thrice. The shoot growth parameters viz., plant height, tillers, LAI and dry matter
accumulation of wheat were favourably influenced by preceding crop of mungbean than sorghum. Zero
tillage wheat had better shoot growth than the conventional method. Irrigation scheduling with irrigation at
CRI + IW/CPE = 0.9 produced better shoot growth parameters than at CRI + IW/CPE = 0.5. The rooting
depth of wheat crop recorded at spike initiation, anthesis and milk stages was deeper and root density recorded
at anthesis was higher in upper layers after mungbean than sorghum. Roots of wheat were significantly
deeper under conventional method as compared to zero tillage at all the three growth stages. While, root
density at anthesis was higher in zero tillage as compared to conventional in upper 0-15 cm depth but the
reverse was true in 15-30 cm layer. Root depth was recorded maximum with irrigation scheduling at low
moisture regime of CRI + IW/CPE = 0.5, and decreased with increase in moisture level. However, the root
density at anthesis did not vary much under varying irrigation schedules
