Genetic Diversity Assessment for Growth and Yield Traits in Cauliflower

Polygenic Variations and Character Association in Early Maturing Indian Cauliflowers (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis L.)

“…The traits such as net curd weight, curd compactness and marketable curd showed high PCV and GCV (Table 1). This result is in line with the conclusion of Santhosha et al, (2015) and in close harmony with findings of Manaware et al, (2017). The advancement of such characters can be brought about by subjecting the progenies to vigorous environmental condition.…”

“…It also indicated that genetic factors were mainly accountable for expression of those traits and selection could be made effectively on the basis of phenotypic performance. Similar findings in cauliflower have been reported by Manaware et al, (2017), Dipti and Singh (2013), Kumar et al, (2011) and Singh et al, (2006). The traits such as net curd weight, curd compactness and marketable curd showed high PCV and GCV (Table 1).…”

Assessment of Genetic Variability and Character Association for Yield and Its Contributing Components in Mid Maturing Indian Cauliflower

“…The traits such as leaf width (cm), curd angle ( o ), curd polar diameter (cm), marketable curd weight (kg), net curd weight (kg), and yield (q/ha) showed high PCV and GCV (Table 2). This result is in line with the conclusion of Santhosha et al, (2015) and in close harmony with Manaware et al, (2017). The advancement of such characters can be brought about by subjecting the progenies to vigorous environmental condition.…”

Genetic Studies for Selection Parameters in Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L. var. botrytis): A Review

“…The selection method for the development of cauliflower genotypes would heavily emphasize parameters like gross weight per plant, marketable curd weight, net curd weight, number of leaves, curd diameter, harvest index, and curd size index. Manaware et al [48] demonstrated that for all the traits, including days to harvest, leaves per plant, curd length, curd width, total plant weight, curd weight, net curd weight, curd circumference, the core length, days to curd initiation, days to curd formation, the magnitude of genotypic correlation was higher than that of phenotypic correlation. Days to curd initiation, days to curd formation and leaves per plant, all exhibited a negative and significant correlation with stalk length.…”
