Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the lemongrass genotypes for growth, yield and quality contributing characters. Study Design: Fisher’s method of ANOVA by Panse and Sukhatme. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Plantation, Spices, Medicinal and Aromatic Crops, College of Horticulture, Bagalkot, Karnataka during rabi 2023-24. Methodology: Forty genotypes of lemongrass were assessed for growth, yield and quality parameters. Results: Among forty genotypes, Elite genotype recorded the maximum plant height and petiole length. Whereas, the highest plant spread, number of tillers, leaf length, leaf width and biomass yield per clump, per plot and hectare was found maximum in CKP25 and OD-83 for girth of the tiller at different growth stages. Conclusion: The genotypes superior for growth, yield and quality parameters will be considered for future breeding program.
