2013
Taj, Amreen | Naik, B Hemla
The study was carried out to know the "Performance of gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii Hook.) genotypes under protected cultivation" for their growth, yield and quality cut flowers in the Department of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture, College of Horticulture, Mudigere during the year 2011–12. Ten different genotypes of Gerbera tissue cultured plants namely Amlet, Manizales, Kyllian, Elite, Vilassar, Pasto, Amelie, Nuvola, Naike and Muriel were grown under naturally ventilated polyhouse of 560 m² at a spacing of 30 × 30 cm. Among the ten genotypes studied there were wide and highly significant variations observed for various growth, floral, cut flower yield and quality parameters. The genotype Naike produced maximum number of quality cut flowers (38.01) and was statistically on par with Kyllian (36.94) and significantly superior over other genotypes studied. The genotype Amlet produced the longest stalk length, bigger sized flowers were produced by Kyllian and Vilassar and the genotype Elite produced maximum number of ray florets compared to other genotypes. The vegetative parameters like number of leaves per plant, suckers production and total leaf chlorophyll content was maximum in the genotype Naike, where as plant spread, leaf area and leaf area index were maximum in the genotype Amelie.
