| dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was carried out on “Evaluation of elite tissue culture raised banana varieties for growth, yield and quality under southern dry zone of Karnataka (Bengaluru condition)” during 2018 to 2020 at Department of Horticulture, UAS, GKVK, Bangalore. The healthy, vigorous and uniform sized twelve tissue culture raised banana varieties were collected from different locations and planted at spacing of 1.8 m × 1.8 m with trench method and the experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design. Among the varieties, highest plant height (342.73 cm), pseudostem girth (88.93cm) and number of leaves per plant (24.67) was obtained in Udhayam at shooting stage. The time taken for an early shooting (228.40 days), shooting to harvesting (118.53 days) and least crop duration (346.93 days) was noticed in Grand Naine and it was followed in Williams. Among the varieties, the more number of hands per bunch (13.60), number of fingers per bunch (200.13), length of bunch (78.67 cm), weight of bunch per plant (26.34 kg), yield per hectare (81.32 t/ha), highest level of TSS (21.40 0B), reducing sugar (16.20 %), non reducing sugar (3.93 %) and total sugar (20.13 %) was recorded in Grand Naine. The sensory parameters and pulp to peel ratio was superior in Yelakki bale. The cost benefit ratio was highest in Grand Naine (1:3.45) and Williams (1:3.05). The varieties such as Grand Naine, Williams and Yelakki bale were considered as most suitable for cultivation under southern dry zone of Karnataka. | en_US |
