“…Further, the results of all the characters may be attributed to the genetic makeup of hybrids/genotypes having different hormonal levels, especially gibberellic and abscisic acid, temperature requirements, dormancy and stored food reserves which resulted in different vegetative and flower growth under prevailing agro-climatic conditions. Similar results have also been reported by Momin et al, (2015); Churasia et al, (2015); Naresh et al, (2015); Saleem et al, (2013); Sarkar and Chakraborty (2014) and Ahmed et al, (2002).…”

The present experiments were conducted with twenty-eight gladiolus hybrids along with check at the research farm of the Division of Floriculture & Landscaping, ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi during the year 2021-22 to study the gladiolus hybrids for commercial traits and their performance and suitability for commercialization and profitability. The mean performance of gladiolus hybrids data were highly significant for all the traits studied. The results indicated that early flowering was observed in hybrids such as Chandni x Snow Princess, P-16-1 x Eurovision, Melody Open Seedlings and High Hopes Open Seedlings and its range was from 76.00 – 88.33 days after planting, whereas, late flowering was observed in hybrids such as Rose Time Steam Boat x GreenWillow (114.66 day), Swarnima x Viola (111.00 day) and Candyman x Anjali (107.00 day) respectively. Maximum plant height 145.33 cm, 133.00 cm, 131.33 cm, 131.00 cm and 130.66 cm were recorded in Green Pasture x Regency, Smokey Lady x HeadyWine, Salmon Queen Open Seedlings, Canada x GreenWillow and American Beauty x GreenWillow respectively. Number of florets per spike more than 19 was received in hybrid AVE x Mayur, Vidushi Mutant, Mayur x Howard, Pearl Beauty x Lucky Shamrock, Mayur x GreenWillow and Green Lilac Open Seedlings respectively. Maximum number of corms per plant was seen in many hybrids such as Smokey Lady x Oscar, Chandni x Snow Princess, Vidushi Mutant, Canada x GreenWillow, Candyman x Anjali, Salmon Queen Open Seedlings and Melody Open Seedlings respectively as compare to remaining hybrids and check. Hybrids Smokey Lady x HeadyWine, Vidushi Mutant and Canada x GreenWillow had produced maximum number of cormels as 77.33, 74.66, and 72.00 respectively as compare to other hybrids.

The Effects of Growth Regulators and Apical Bud Removal on Growth, Flowering, and Corms Production of Two Gladiolus Varieties

et al. 2022

Gladiolus is commonly propagated from corms. The multiplication rate of corms is low and to increase the propagation rate, we examined a combination of apical bud removal and the application of growth regulators. The experiments were conducted in two varieties, ‘Rose Supreme’ and ‘White Prosperity’, and over two seasons. The apical buds on the planting corms were either removed or left intact before the same corms were soaked in a suspension with either 100 ppm of benzyladenine (BA), 100 ppm of gibberellic acid (GA3), or pure water. The results showed that apical bud removal increased the number of corms and shoots. GA3 had limited the effect on corm and shoot production, but instead resulted in increased total leaf area and leaf weight per shoot. BA, on the other hand, increased the number of corms and shoots. Overall, the removal of the apical bud plus application of BA increased the number of corms and shoots but reduced the average corm diameter and leaf weight per shoot. This was clearer in ‘Rose Supreme’ than in ‘White Prosperity’. To maximize flower production for the coming season, farmers need to produce a high number of planting corms, but they also need to balance this with a sufficient corm size and the production of flowers of good quality. The application of growth regulators in combination with apical bud removal should be fine-tuned to avoid a situation that leads to the production of too many small or too few large corms.
