Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar

Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University popularly known as HAU, is one of Asia's biggest agricultural universities, located at Hisar in the Indian state of Haryana. It is named after India's seventh Prime Minister, Chaudhary Charan Singh. It is a leader in agricultural research in India and contributed significantly to Green Revolution and White Revolution in India in the 1960s and 70s. It has a very large campus and has several research centres throughout the state. It won the Indian Council of Agricultural Research's Award for the Best Institute in 1997. HAU was initially a campus of Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana. After the formation of Haryana in 1966, it became an autonomous institution on February 2, 1970 through a Presidential Ordinance, later ratified as Haryana and Punjab Agricultural Universities Act, 1970, passed by the Lok Sabha on March 29, 1970.

    Characterization of coriander genotypes
    (CCSHAU, 2012) Amit; Malik, T.P
    A study was conducted on “Characterization of coriander genotypes” to identify sixty genotypes under study. Plant morphological characters like plant growth habit, leaf tip, number of umbels per plant, yield per plant (g) were found to be the most important diagnostic characters for cultivar identification in coriander. Some seed morphological characters like test weight, seed colour, seed ridges and seed shape were also found helpful to differentiate the coriander cultivars. The differential response of coriander genotypes to chemical test - phenol test was found to be very effective for genotype identification. The schematic diagram on the basis of some important morphological traits has higher resolution in terms of differentiating among genotypes. The schematic diagrams based on seed and chemical test are also very useful for identification of genotypes.
