Effect of Corm Size and Varieties on Growth Performance and Cut Flower Characteristics of Gladiolus / Joshi, K.R. in Nepalese Horticulture, v. 8/9 ([07/25/2012])
[article]
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 Different Spike Harvesting Stages on the Corn Yield of Gladiolus cv. Jester for Mid Hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Sharmila Piya, Author ; Purushottam P. Khatiwada, Author ; Ajay S.R. Bajracharya, Author ; Banhu P. Choudhary, Author ; Jawahar L.Mandal, Author Pagination: 93-96 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: corm, cormel, gladiolus, spike Abstract: Gladiolus is number one among cut flowers produced in Nepal. Its production area is increasing day by day due to its dual benefit from spikes and corms. An experiment was conducted in order to assess the effect of different spike harvest stages on corm production at Agriculture Research Station, Pakhribas ·Both corm and carmel yield reduced with opening of more florets. Treatments 1 and 2 produCed highest corm and carmel yield. Thus we can recommend ·the spike harvesting before opening of buds at color showing stage for highest corm and carmel production.

Title : Role of sucrose on vase life of cut spike of gladiolus cv pacifica Material Type: printed text Authors: G Upreti, Author ; Regmi, H.N., Author Pagination: 141-145 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Cut spikes, gladiolus, sucrose, vase life Abstract: An experiment was conducted to access the suitability of different concentration of sucrose solution in vase life of cut spike of gladiolus during 1999/2000 in Horticulture laboratory, IAAS. Results of experiment on the effect of different concentration of sucrose in the vase life behavior of cut-spikes under normal room temperature demonstrated than 12% sucrose solution gave maximum number of florets open at 6 and 9 days of vase life……..
