Description Shoot dry weight partitioning and cumulative abscission of leaf, flowers and pods were determined for nine short-duration pigeonpea cultivars grown with adequate soil moisture throughout growth (control), or subjected to water stress during the late vegetative and flowering (stress 1), flowering and early pod development (stress 2), or pod fill (stress 3) growth stages. The total cumulative dry weight of abscised plant parts was lower for determinate cultivars, but it increased to a greater extent under water stress than that of indeterminate cultivars, with stress 2 having the greatest and stress 3 the least effects. The dry weight contribution of pods to total abscission was
