STUDIES ON FLORAL BIOLOGY IN STRAWBERRY (Fragaria x Ananassa) UNDER HILLY CONDITIONS OF UTTARAKHAND (BEARING HABIT, TIME AND DURATION OF FLOWERING, BUD DEVELOPMENT, FLOWER CHARACTERS, ANTHESIS AND DEHISCENCE)
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 58
Abstract
To know the floral biology of strawberry, a field experiment conducted at the experimental farm of VCSG, COH, Bharsar during 2015 – 2016. The vegetative growth started mainly during December to February under hilly conditions of Bharsar. The time of flowering and its duration was recorded between February to June. As monthly observation the flowering under Bharsar conditions commenced from last week of February to second week of June with the peak period 20 to 26 days after opening of first flower. The flowers were hermaphrodite with male and female reproductive organ present in same flower. The maximum rate of anthesis and dehiscence in strawberry plants was found between 10 am to 12 noon. Rise in temperature and fall in humidity were found to hasten anthesis as well as dehiscence
