Evaluation of early cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis L.) elite material for maturity, yield and quality characters

Simranpreet Sandhu, Navdeep Singh, Gurdeep Singh and Khushveer Singh

The present investigation titled was carried out at University college of Agriculture, Vegetable research farm, Guru Kashi University, Talwandi Sabo (Bathinda) during winter season 2023-2024 to evaluate cauliflower varieties. The experiment was laid out in RBD with three replications. Total 13 genotypes were evaluated for horticultural traits including one check genotype (Pusa Katki). The analysis of variance showed significant variation among different genotypes for all the traits under study. The main objective of this study was to evaluate early-season cauliflower genotypes with desirable curd quality and yield. The result showed that maximum yield was found in Selection 11 and minimum in Selection 1 while Selection 2 took minimum days to curd initiation and Days to first harvest so this selection is early maturing. The curd quality of Selection 2 was also good. Genetic analysis indicate that Phenotypic Coefficient of Variation (PCV) were higher than those of Genotypic Coefficient of Variation (GCV). Phenotypic coefficient of variation was highest in Self blanching leaves whereas Genotypic coefficient of variation, Heritability and genetic gain were maximum recorded in height of plant.
