چکیده

The study was conducted on physiology and biochemical performance and correlation for yield and its quality characters of 18 genotypes of Glory lily (Gloriosa superba). Experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with three replications at the Medicinal Plants Unit, Botanical Garden, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore. Genotypes GS 15, GS 06, GS 18, GS 03 and GS 02 were comparatively higher yielding. The maximum leaf area, mean leaf area per plant, total chlorophyll, starch content and soluble protein content were observed in GS 15 while GS 12, recorded the highest total sugar content. Seed yield per plant exhibited highly positive significant correlation both at phenotypic and genotypic levels for eight traits. The remaining traits viz., total sugar, mean leaf area, leaf area index and relative water content had negatively and nonsignificantly correlation with dry seed yield per plant both at phenotypic and genotypic levels.
