Abstract
A field experiment was conducted at Kumarganj, Faizabad (Uttar Pradesh), India. Total 27 coriander (Coriandrum sativum L) genotypes, received from All India Coordinated Research Project on Spices, were tested for resistance against stem gall disease and powdery mildew under natural condition. The promising varieties were also tested at Dholi (Bihar), Hissar (Haryana) and different Krishi Vigyan Kendra and farmers field in Uttar Pradesh. The data of coriander genotypes revealed that genotype K. Selection showed lowest incidence of stem gall (8.62%) as compared with Pant Haritma (11.78%), UD-118 (18.78%), RD-154 (33.33%) and LCC-174 (37.46%). The yield performance of K. Selection in coordinated varietal trials at Kumarganj was found significantly higher to the tune of 3.5, 4 and 17.9% during first, second and third year of experimentation over the national check Pant Haritma. K. Selection exhibited highest seed yield at farmer's field (10.88%) and KVK (23.49%). Hence, genotype K. Selection (by the name of Narendra Dhaniya-2) has been recommended by Varietal Release Committee, AICR Pon Spices workshop groupforits notification and release for growing in all over India.
