dc.description.abstractThe present investigation, “Variability studies in Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.)” was carried out in the experimental orchard, Department of Horticulture, CCS Haryana Agricultural University during 2007-80 in winter season on 30 genotypes of chrysanthemum to estimate the genetic variability, heritability, genetic advance and varietal characterization. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. The observations were recorded for plant and floral parameters. All the genotypes differed significantly which indicated a wide range of variation existed among the genotypes under study. The highest flower yield per plant and maximum plant spread was exhibited by Anmol. The estimates of heritability and genetic advance were high for fresh weight of ten flowers, stalk length, plant height, number of buds per plant, number of flowers per plant and flower yield per plant. The correlation and path coefficient analysis revealed that number of flowers per plant, number of buds per plant and plant spread contributed directly as well as indirectly to flower yield. The characters which contributed to flower yield were number of buds per plant, number of flower per plant, plant spread, days to first flower and days to 50% flowering indicating selection of these characters for crop improvement and breeding strategies. Through the schematic flow chart all the genotypes were differentiated. The plant growth habit, leaf margin, leaf colour, stalk shape, disc, flower colour were the key characters, therefore, can be used as morphological descriptors for the varietal identification in chrysanthemum.en_US
