    EVALUATION OF POTTED CHRYSANTHEMUM GENOTYPES UNDER PUNE CONDITIONS
    (Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth (Pune), 2021) Khadage Rutuja Vijaykumar; Dalal, N.R.
    The present investigation entitled “Evaluation of potted chrysanthemum genotypes under pune condition” was undertaken to study the growth and yield performance of twenty five chrysanthemum genotypes during 2020-21. The experiment was laid out in completely randomized design with three replications and contrast analysis was done for comparing three groups. The significant differences were recorded for most of the growth characters. In standard genotype group, Pusa Centenary recorded maximum plant height (65.80 cm), while Pusa Kesari recorded maximum plant spread in both N-S (56.43 cm) and E-W (56.71 cm) direction, number of secondary branches (6.22), leaf length (9.73 cm) and leaf breadth (6.17 cm). However, non- significant results were observed for number of primary branches

    STUDIES ON GROWTH AND YIELD PERFORMANCE OF PROMISING GENOTYPES OF GAILLARDIA (Gaillardia pulchella L.).
    (Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth (Pune), 2017) SALVE SAI DILIP; Bhalekar, S. G.
    The present investigation entitled “Studies on growth and yield performance of promising genotypes of gaillardia (Gaillardia pulchella L.)” was carried out during the year 2016-2017 at Modibaug garden of Horticulture Section, College of Agriculture, Pune. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. Twelve genotypes were studied for growth, quantitative and qualitative characters. The genotype MG-2-2 recorded significantly highest plant height (83.40 cm), (103.60 cm) and (110.00 cm) at 90, 120 and 150 days after transplanting respectively. The genotype MG-9-1 recorded significantly maximum plant spread at (E-W) direction (68.17 cm) and at (N-S) direction (59.40 cm) at 90 DAT. Significantly maximum number of primary branches per plant was recorded in the genotype MG-10-4 (19.15) and the maximum number of secondary branches per plant was recorded in the genotypeMG-9-1 (54.51).

    MUTATION BREEDING IN CROSSANDRA [Crossandra infundibuliformis (L.) Nees.].
    (Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth (Pune), 2017) Suse Arti Balasaheb; Kadam, M. B.
    The present investigation on “Mutation breeding in crossandra [Crossandra infundibuliformis (L.)]” variety Arka Shravya, was carried out in Modibaug garden, College of Agriculture, Pune 05 during 2016-2017, with the objective to create morphological variability in crossandra and to evaluate mutant progeny of crossandra for horticultural performance. Cuttings of crossandra variety Arka Shravya were subjected to irradiation treatments with different doses of gamma rays viz., 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 kR at Bhabha Automic Research Centre, Trombay in the month of September, 26th, 2016. The experiment was laid out in Rod Row Trial technique with six treatments [1control(untreated) + 5(treated with gamma rays)] having 50 cuttings in each treatment.

    EVALUATION OF CHINA ASTER HYBRIDS (Callistephus chinensis (L.) Nees.).
    (Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth (Pune), 2017) KHADE NAVNATH PARMESHWAR; Patil, M. S.
    The present investigation entitled “Evaluation of China aster hybrids (Callistephus chinensis (L.) Nees.)” was conducted during the year 2016-17 at Modibaug garden of Horticulture Section, College of Agriculture, Pune. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with four replications and four parents viz., Phule Ganesh Pink (P1), Phule Ganesh Purple (P2), Phule Ganesh Violet (P3), Phule Ganesh White (P4), and twelve crosses viz., P1xP2, P1xP3, P1xP4, P2xP1, P2xP3, P2xP4, P3xP1, P3xP2, P3xP4, P4xP1, P4xP2, P4xP3. The study conducted and recorded highly significant variation in growth, floral and flower yield parameters among the crosses, cross P1xP4 was significantly superior over all other crosses which yielded maximum loose flowers yield per plant (375.031 g), duration of flowering from first bloom (41.167 days), number of seeds per flower (332.583), number of seeds per gram (503.000) with Red-Purple coloured flowers and Brown colour of seeds.

    EFFECT OF DIFFERENT NITROGEN LEVELS ON GROWTH, YIELD AND YIELD ATTRIBUTES OF GAILLARDIA (Gaillardia pulchella L.) cv. MG−9−1
    (Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth (Pune), 2020) Dedhia Labdhi Dilip; Bhalekar, S. G.
    The present investigation entitled “Effect of different nitrogen levels on growth, yield and yield attributes of gaillardia (Gaillardia pulchella L.) cv. MG-9-1” was carried out at Modibaug garden of Horticultural Section, College of Agriculture, Pune on silty clay loam soil, during kharif season in the year 2019-2020. The experiment consisted of seven treatments with different levels of nitrogen (0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250 and 300 kg N/ha), phosphorous and potassium each at 80 kg/ha, were studied in Randomized Block Design with three replications. Nitrogen in the form of urea was applied in three splits i.e. 40 percent as basal dose and remaining 30 percent each at 60 and 120 DAT, while phosphorous in the form of SSP and potassium in the form of MOP was applied in two splits i.e. 50 percent as basal dose and remaining 50 percent at 60 DAT.

    An experiment entitled, “Collection and Evaluation of Annual Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.)” was conducted during 2019-2020 at NARP, Ganeshkhind, Pune. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design with eighteen Annual Chrysanthemum genotypes as treatments and replicated twice. Each plot contained thirty plants spaced at 45 cm X 30 cm. Among the eighteen genotypes studied, HCP-B-9, HCP-B-15 and HCP-B-5 found superior for plant spread (N-S and E-W) and number of branches per plant. Genotypes, HCP-B- 15, HCP-B-14 and HCP-B-12 reported maximum plant height.

    EVALUATION OF ORNAMENTAL FLOWERING PLANTS FOR VERTICAL GARDENING
    (Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth (Pune), 2020) Adate Priyanka Sanjay; Pachankar, P. B.
    The present study “Evaluation of ornamental flowering plants for vertical gardening” was carried out at the Horticulture Section, College of Agriculture, Pune during 2019-2020. The experiment was conducted to evaluate 20 plant species for their suitability to vertical garden. The treatments consisted of Antirrhinum majus, Callistephus chinensis, Begonia spp, Calendula officinalis, Celosia cristata, Cosmos bipinnatus, Crossandra infundibuliformis, Zinnia elegans, Dianthus caryophyllus, Tagetes patula, Gazania linearis, Lantana camara, Viola tricolor var. hortensis, Pentas lanceolata, Petunia X atkinsiana, Portulaca grandiflora, Salvia officinalis, Catharanthus roseus, Torenia fournieri and Gomphrena globosa, replicated twice in a completely randomized design for two seasons i.e. summer and winter. In both the season all 20 plant spp performed well. Where, Begonia spp, Crossandra infundibuliformis and Gazania linearis were found best for plant height parameter. While in case of area coverage, Portulaca grandiflora, Antirrhinum majus and Dianthus caryophyllus were found best suited for summer season. Whereas, Pentas lanceolata, Begonia spp, Portulaca grandiflora and Petunia X atkinsiana were found best performing for winter season.
