| dc.description.abstract | Weather conditions often unstable changed and increase the floods of agricultural land. Land which was
originally drought will experience wetness and need variety of a plant that wetness tolerant. This study were aimed to get
cassava that wet tolerant and to study the morphological, physiological characters of cassava grown on wetness land. The
experiment was conducted based on factorial random plot design that consisting two factors with five replications. The first
factor were four varieties namely: V1 = Daun Ganja; V2 = Sawi Ketan; V3 = Kasesat Beracun; V4 = Gajah. The second factor
was wet treatment consisting of 2 the condition that were K0 = as control, media with 100% field capacity; K1 = as wet
treatment by watering of media maintain on -10 cm from media surface. The difference between treatments tested with
Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) with the probability 5%. Wet treatment started when plant aged was 2 months after
planting, during eight weeks. The observations on variables based on morphological and physiological characters. Result
showed that every varieties give the different response on wet treatment. Best response on wet tolerant variety shown by
variety code of V2 (Sawi Ketan) were indicated by plant height, total leaf number produced, stem diameter, fresh weight of
root, dry weight of root, fresh weight of shoot, dry weight of shoot, photosynthesis index, stomata conductivity and root
volume. | en_US |
