Title : Effect of Corm Size and Varieties on Growth Performance and Cut Flower Characteristics of Gladiolus Material Type: printed text Authors: Joshi, K.R., Author ; Gautam, D.M., Author ; Baral, D.R., Author ; U.K Pun, Author Publication Date: 2012 Article on page: 7-12 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Gladiolus, sprouting, spike initiation and florets Abstract: An experiment was conducted to assess the effect of corm size and varieties on
growth performance and cut flower characteristics of gladiolus in the farmer’s
field at Gunjanagar VDC, Chanauli, Chitwan during November 2008 to April
2009. The experiment consisted of 12 treatment combinations laid out in twofactorial
Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications.
Four sizes of corms viz. 2-3cm, 3-4cm, 4-5cm and 5-6cm and three varieties viz.
American Beauty, Interpret and Yellow Summer Sunshine Growth performance
and cut flower characteristics varied significantly among varities and was
affected by the size of corm. Large sized corms (5-6cm) performed better with
respect to days to sprouting (16.11 days). Earlier spikes initiation (87.89 days),
longer spikes (107.1cm) and more number of florets/spike (16.26) were produced
from largest corms (5-6cm). Significant variation was observed among the
varieties in most of the characters. Yellow Summer Sunshine sprouted earlier
(16.08 days) while Interpret had earlier spike initiation (87.25 days). Plant
height, leaf length and number of daughter corms were found highest in Yellow
Summer Sunshine while maximum numbers of leaves per plant were found in
American Beauty followed by Interpret . Regarding cut flower characteristics,
Interpret was found superior having more number (16.12) of florets/spike

Title : Effect of grafting dates and methods on success and growth of mandarin (Citrus reticulata Blanco) sapling Material Type: printed text Authors: B. Chalise, Author ; Baral, D.R., Author ; D.M Gautam, Author ; Thapa, R.B., Author Pagination: 134-140 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: A field experiment was conducted in Dhankuta to find the effect of grafting dates and methods on success and growth of mandarin sapling. Scions taken from ‘Khoku Local’ mandarin were grafted on one-year-old trifoliate orange seedling rootstock by shoot tip and veneer grafting methods in eight different dates starting from 29th October, 2009 to 12th February, 2010 at 15 days intervals. The grafts were planted inside the closed tunnel of jute and plastic sheet at 10×10 cm spacing in 50×60 cm experimental plots laid out in two factorial split-plot designs with three replications per treatment, containing 30 grafts per plot. The grafting methods were allotted on main-plots and the dates on sub-plots randomly. The success and growth of sapling was significantly affected by the dates while the methods had no effect. The highest success (96.11 %) was found on 13th January, followed by 28th January (91.11%) and the least (51.67%) on 29th October grafting. The mortality of sprouted grafts was lower in December and January, while observed higher in earlier and late season grafting. Observation taken at 180 days after grafting in successful graft revealed that 29th October had the highest number of primary branches (2.2) but the lowest sapling height (29.03 cm) and canopy volume (973.3 cm3); 14th November had the highest number of leaves (48.47), secondary branches (2.505) and canopy volume (1536.0 cm3); 29th December gave the maximum sapling height (32.86 cm); 13th January produced the lowest number of leaves (21.93) per sapling and 28th January produced the lowest number of primary (1.533) and secondary branches (1.172).
