| dc.description.abstract | The present investigation was carried out during the year 2000-2001 at the Instructional-Cum-Research-Orchard of Department of Horticulture, Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth, Rahuri with a view to study comparative performance of two newly developed tropical gynoecious cucumber hybrids in two different growing seasons i.e. Kharif and Rdbi. The experiment was laid out in FRBD with 5 replications and 16 treatments. Eight plants were selected as experimental plants in each treatment for recording the observations. The vegetative growth of plants as assessed by mean length of main vine, number of lateral branches were significantly influenced by ' conditions. The highest vegetative growth had registered under polyhouse condition in the cultivar Phule Prachi. The appearance of male and female flower significantly at lower node observed during Rabi season crop comparedl to Kharif. The earlier appearance of male and female was observed in polyhouse condition in the cultivar Phule Shubhangi. Appearance of male and female flower at lower node was observed in open field condition in the cultivar Himangi. Fruit characters such as diameter of fruit, weight of fruit and length of fruit were observed significantly maximum observed in polyhouse condition in the cultivar Phule Shubhangi. The maximum number of fruits per vine, yield per vine and yield per hectare were recorded in polyhouse condition, during rabi season in the cultivar Phule Prachi. The results obtained in the present investigation indicated that Phule Prachi showed over all excellent performance in all the conditions and seasons over rest of varieties showing its superiority for higher yield all the year round. Therefore the Phule Prachi gynoecious cucumber can be recommended for maximum production in polyhouse condition. | en_US |
