| dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was conducted to ascertain influence of varieties and nutrition on growth, flowering and yield in African marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) for two seasons in the Department of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture, K. R. C. College of Horticulture, Arabhavi during 2012-13. The results indicated early germination, higher germination per cent, seedling vigor index in Local and Double Orange variety for both the seasons studied when treated with VAM species Entrophospora. Per cent root colonization and chlamydospore count in the soil were high with the Entrophospora inoculated seedlings as compared to uninoculated. The results indicated significant increase in vegetative parameters for Local variety viz., plant height, stems girth, number of branches, spread and leaf area with INM during first season of the crop while variety Double Orange responded well to RDF. During second season all the vegetative parameters were higher with INM treatment for both the varieties followed by organic treatment. Individual flower weight, flower diameter, number of petals/flower, flower yield (g/plant, kg/ plot and t/ha) were higher with RDF in the first season and higher with INM during second season in variety Double Orange followed by organic treatment. Whereas, number of flowers was higher with RDF in first season and INM in the second season in Local variety. Increased shelf life and higher xanthophyll content were recorded with INM whereas, chlorophyll content was higher with RDF for both the seasons in Double Orange variety. Soil N, P, K increased with the second season of the crop growth. Benefit cost ratio was higher with Local variety and farmers’ practice for the first season. During second season maximum benefit cost ratio was recorded with Double Orange farmers’ practice. | en_US |
