CHARACTERIZATION OF GARLIC (Allium sativum L.) GENOTYPES BASED ON MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERS
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 44
Abstract
The present investigation was carried out at Research Farm of the department of Vegetable Science, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar during spring Rabi season of 2014-15 on the basis of characterization and variability present in twenty-five garlic genotypes. The twenty-five genotypes were laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. The cloves of each genotype were planted manually on 28th October 2014 in flat beds of 3x2 m size at a spacing of 15x10 cm. The genotypes were categorized on the basis of plant height, number of leaves, leaf length, leaf width, foliage colour, pseudostem length, polar and equatorial diameter of bulb, number of cloves per bulb, skin colour of bulb and cloves and days to harvesting, which differentiate the garlic genotypes. The material assessed in the present investigation possessed wide range of variation for various characters observed. The genotypes were characterized for their morphological characters.
