ANALYZING YIELD ATTRIBUTES OF DIFFERENT ONION (ALLIUM CEPA L.) VARIETIES FOR GREEN LEAF PURPOSESurbhi Prithiani, Kumari Pushpa, Rashmi Nandkishore Dongre, Harshita Mali and Charu ShekhawatAbstract The present investigation entitled âAnalyzing Yield Attributes of Different Onion (Allium cepa L.) Varieties for Green Leaf Purposeâ was conducted during Rabi- 2017-18 at Scheme for Research on Onion Storage, Department of Horticulture, Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth, Rahuri with a view to evaluate the green leaves yield of different onion varieties for leafy vegetable. The present investigation was carried out in Randomized Block Design. The overall evaluation of 18 genotypes for green leaves yield was conducted. The results obtained for polar diameter and equatorial diameter both at 30, 45 and 60 DAT showed non significant results. For average weight of leaves and bulb, results recorded were significantly different and maximum was in Baswant-780 at 30, 45 and 60 DAT. Similarly, significant difference was observed in yield kg/plot and yield q/ha with maximum yield in Baswant-780 at all 30, 45 and 60 DAT. From the above result it can be concluded that better leaf quality can be obtained at 45 DAT. Also T3 i.e., Baswant-780 followed by T18 i.e., N-2-4-1 showed better result for green leaf yield. |
