Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation High phenotypic and genotypic coefficient of variation was observed for bulb yield per plant, bulb yield per hectare and bulb yield per plot in garlic.
- Observation High phenotypic and genotypic coefficient of variation was observed for average weight of 10 cloves in garlic.
- Observation Days to maturity and number of leaves per plant showed low phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation in garlic, indicating limited scope for improvement.
- Observation Leaf length, plant height and polar diameter showed low phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation in garlic, indicating limited scope for improvement.
- Observation Equatorial diameter of bulb, average weight of ten cloves and plant height at 60 DAP showed high heritability coupled with high genetic advance as percentage of mean in garlic.
- Mechanism The high heritability and genetic advance of these garlic traits are attributed to additive gene action.
- Observation Pseudostem diameter and polar diameter of bulb showed high heritability with moderate genetic gain in garlic.
- Observation Days to maturity showed high heritability with low genetic advance as percentage of mean in garlic.
- Mechanism Days to maturity in garlic is likely regulated by non-additive gene action and high genotype by environment interaction.
- Recommendation Simple selection will not be rewarding for the traits in the non-additive case in garlic.
