Determination of Suitable Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) Cultivars for Eastern Mediterranean Region

YIELDS AND QUALITY PERFORMANCES OF CORIANDER (Coriandrum sativum L.) GENOTYPES UNDER DIFFERENT ECOLOGICAL CONDITIONS

“…Meanwhile, number of umbrella significantly correlated with plant height and seed yield. Similar to this, the number of umbrella per plant was another important character for seed and essential oil yield (Inan et al, 2014). -0,316** 0,034ns -0,170ns Seed Yield -0,684** 0,423** 0,808** 0,167ns Es.…”

“…Dual significant interactions showed that significant differences between environmental conditions or interactions could result in huge variations in plant height. Plant height is mainly controlled by genotype × environment interactions and this may also be influenced by ecological conditions and agronomic practices (Inan et al, 2014). Moreover, literatures reported that distribution of precipitation/rainfall in seasons is to influence the plant height (Mencuccini andMagnani, 2000 andMidgley, 2003).…”

“…Moreover, studies reported that seed and essential oil of coriander have anti-diabetic, laxative, carminative, diuretic, tonic, hypolipidemic, anticancer etc. effects (Ghamarnia and Daichin, 2013, Inan et al, 2014and Hani et al, 2015.…”

“…Yield and quality characters of genotype are commonly under effect of genetic makeup, environmental condition and agronomical practices (Sifola and Barbieri, 2006, Gharıb et al, 2008and Hadian et al, 2010. Seed yield of coriander changed almost from 0,90 t ha -1 to 2,1 t ha -1 (Kizil, 2002;Kaya et al, 2000 andInan et al, 2014). Differences of these values may be attributed to genotype × environment interactions (Kaya et al, 2000 andInan et al, 2014).…”

Differences of these values may be attributed to genotype × environment interactions (Kaya et al, 2000 andInan et al, 2014). Meanwhile, seed yield is mostly under effect of some yield components (plant height, number of branches, number of umbrella per plant and 1000 seed weight and essential oil content), appearing essential determiners for breeding programs (Gharib et al, 2008;Hadian et al, 2010 andInan et al, 2014).…”
