The present research work was carried out during the year 2017-18 at College of Horticulture, Dr. Y.S.R Horticultural University, Venkataramannagudem, West Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh. The experiment consisted of 10 crossandra genotypes, laid out in randomized block design with three replications under open conditions. The observations were recorded on various parameters in which the genotype Arka Shravya exhibited superiority in parameters like plant spread (1407.53 cm2), number of leaves (241.24), Fresh weight of plant (80.83 g), Dry weight of plant (20.21 g), flowering duration of spike (26.33 days), rachis length (12.77 cm) and flower yield per sq. meter (1448.01) whereas, Arka kanaka showed the more spike length (20.90 cm) and longevity of flowers on plants 4.33 days while, Arka Shreeya found to be largest in flower size (8.87 cm) as compared to check and other genotypes. more...
