Identification of potential genotypes of fenugreek in rainfed vertisols for yield and diosgenin content
View through CrossRef
The present study was undertaken for three years (2009-12) to evaluate thirteen promising genotypes from India for both yield and diosgenin content. Maximum yield was recorded in genotype LFC-103 (584.1 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>) followed by HM-348 (542.8 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>). The diosgenin content in the studied genotypes varied significantly, similar observations were recorded with the diosgenin productivity. Local cultivar recorded significantly highest diosgenin content (0.92 %). The highest diosgenin productivity was recorded with UM-364 (3.97 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>) followed by NDM-119 (3.91 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>). The superiority of these genotypes can be attributed to their wide adaptability and robust growth under rainfed conditions.

Title: Identification of potential genotypes of fenugreek in rainfed vertisols for yield and diosgenin content
Description:
The present study was undertaken for three years (2009-12) to evaluate thirteen promising genotypes from India for both yield and diosgenin content.
Maximum yield was recorded in genotype LFC-103 (584.
1 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>) followed by HM-348 (542.
8 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>).
The diosgenin content in the studied genotypes varied significantly, similar observations were recorded with the diosgenin productivity.
Local cultivar recorded significantly highest diosgenin content (0.
92 %).
The highest diosgenin productivity was recorded with UM-364 (3.
97 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>) followed by NDM-119 (3.
91 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>).
The superiority of these genotypes can be attributed to their wide adaptability and robust growth under rainfed conditions.
