Abstract: | Of the 184 accessions of turmeric collected in an All India survey, based on preliminary evaluation for three years, 9 high yielding accessions designated as PCT-I to PCT-9 were selected during 1982. These 9 accessions were evaluated for their yield performance in a multi-location trial (4 centres) for 3 years. Based on pooled analysis of the data it was concluded that (i) there were significant differences in the mean yield of accessions (ii) there was accessions x place interaction over all the 3 years (iii) the selections PCT-2, 5 and 8 were significantly superior, and (iv) among the selections, PCT-8 (Fig. 1) had the maximum yield potential (31.2 t/ha) and high curcumin content (8.7%). |
