Understanding the Genetic Variability for Growth and Leaf Yield of Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.)

Background: Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) is a popular herbaceous annual seed spice crop. It mainly grown for as well green leaf, the leaf and yield varied with genetic background of genotypes. Therefore, selection genotypes high highly desired, along magnitude heritability advance wider adaptation cultivation. In this view, accessions were collected their variables assessed. Methods: The experimental material included 48 coriander two check varieties CO4 CO5. plant materials obtained from germplasm repository at Department Spices Plantation Crops, Horticultural College Research Institute, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, India. experiment was laid out in Randomised Block Design replications. Results: results analysis variance revealed significant differences among accessions. High coupled GAM observed economical trait (87% 48.93% yield) indicating that, traits heritable nature, hence breeding most effective.
