ANALYSIS OF THE DIFFERENT PARAMETERS FOR FRUIT YIELD AND YIELD CONTRIBUTING CHARACTERS IN STRAWBERRY (Pages : 15 - 18)

The experiment was conducted at Akafuzi Agrotechnologis, Namo Bhadra, Rajshahi, Bangladesh winter season of 2007 to estimate the genetic parameters and character association in seven exotic genotypes of strawberry. Highest genotypic and phenotypic coefficients of variations were observed for number of stolons/plant followed by number of fruits/plant and number of nodes/stolon. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance as percentage of mean was observed for fruit yield, plant height, number of flowers /plant and canopy size. Plant height, number of leaves /plant, number of stolons/plant, number of flowers/plant and number of fruits/plant showed highly significant positive association with fruit yield. Most of the characters exerted negative direct effect on fruit yield and highest direct effect was for number of nodes/stolon. Download
