Evaluation of different cultivars of chrysanthemum suitable for low hill conditions of Himachal Pradesh

Evaluation of Chrysanthemum on Growth and Flowering Yield of Newly Evolved Genotypes of Chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflora Tzvelev) for Loose Flower Production

“…Minimum days taken to flowering was observed in cultivar 'Surf'(135.81 days) and maximum was observed in genotype 'UHFSChr129 '(170.26 days). The present findings are in close conformity with earlier findings by Behra et al,(2002) and Negi et al, (2015). Negi et al, (1994), Arora et al, (1999), Behra (2002 and Kameshwari et al, (2013).…”

“…Number of side shoots per plant showed statistically significant difference among genotypes. Genotype 'UHFSChr132'(6.75) followed by 'UHFSChr122 '(6.67) found maximum number of side shoots per plant and minimum was observed in genotype 'UHFSChr124'(3.92) similar variation was also reported by Barigdad et al, (1992), Baskaran (2004), Negi et al, (2015) and Kumar et ., (2017). Number of flower per plant was found maximum in genotype 'UHFSChr121' (38.39 cm) Maximum number of flowers per plant was recorded in genotype 'UHFSChr128' (427.08) followed by 'UHFSChr117' (412.17) and 'UHFSChr132' (405.33) and minimum was observed in genotype 'UHFSChr124' (30.25).…”

Evaluation in Different Gladiolus (Gladiolus Grandiflorus L.) Varieties for Spike and Corm Yield Enhancement in Coastal Tamil Nadu

“…The data clearly indicate that the wide variation observed in different growth characters are probably due to genetic nature of the varieties which phenotypically appear when grown under the costal Tamilnadu condition. Morphological variations on number of days to sprouts and size of leaf were observed between different gladiolus varieties by Kadam et al (2014), Sisodia and Singh (2015), Swaroop et al (2017) and Mushtaq et al (2018) Similar finding have been reported by earlier worker Ranjan et al (2010), Shaukat et al (2012), Negi et al (2014) and Chourasia et al (2015). The better performance of growth characters observed in gladiolus cultivars Sarala, White Friendship and Guvari might be because of early sprouting and higher leaf area which might have increased photosynthesis leading to the availability of more photosynthates.…”

Varietal Evaluation of Gladiolus for Flowering Attributes Under Indo-Gangetic Plains

“…The variation in length of spike and length of rachis is also observed by Susila (2013), Sarkar and Chakraborty (2014), Sindhu et al, (2014), Naresh et al, (2015) Chourasia et al, (2015), , Swaroop et al, (2017), Mushtaq et al, (2018). Negi et al, (2014), Kadam et al, (2014), Rao et al, (2015), Swaroop et al, (2017). The highest longevity of first floret was observed in cv.…”
