Abstract:
The present investigation entitled “The growth performance of marigold (
Tagetes erecta L.) Under Chhattisgarh plains agro-climatic condition”. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with fifteen genotypes and three cultivars at instruction farm of Department of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidayalaya, Raipur.. Studies showed significant effect on plant height CGSG-2
at 30 DAT and CGR-2
at 60 DAT whereas, at 90 DAT, genotype CGJS-4
recorded maximum plant height. Maximum plant spread was recorded in genotype CGR-2
at 60 DAT and CGRJ-1
at 90 DAT. Maximum primary branches plant
-1 was recorded in genotype CGSG-2
at 30 DAT whereas, CGR-3
at 60 and 90 DAT. Maximum secondary branches plant
-1 was recorded in genotype PNG
at 60 and 90 DAT. Maximum number of leaves plant
-1 was recorded in genotype CGJS-3
at 30, 60 and 90 DAT.
