Evaluation of promising strawberry genotypes under Garhwal Himalayan conditions.

摘要

The performance of 17 strawberry genotypes was evaluated under Garhwal agro-climatic conditions. The results revealed that the genotypes Chandler (190.70 g) and Senga Sengana (165.80 g) for yield per plant, berry length and berry width; Belrubi (16.80) and Gorella (15.10) for number of fruit per plant; Dana (26.03 cm) and Chandler (23.22 cm) for plant height; Chandler (1134 cm2) and Belrubi (1118 cm2) for leaf area per plant and number of leaves per plant; were found superior as compared to other genotypes. On the basis of crop duration, genotypes could be categorized as early (Senga Sengana, Confictura and Shasta), mid (Red Coat, Brighton, Gorella, Addie, Osolana, Larson, Missionary and Seascape) and late (Pajaro, Howard, Catskill, Chandler, Belrubi and Dana).
