QUANTITATIVE CHARACTERS

 

 

 

Plant height (cm) 2 cm (Recorded as the length from soil level to topmost portion in the canopy centre exactly above the main trunk).

Canopy width (cm)

- (Recorded simultaneously with plant height as the max.  Canopy diagonal in a horizontal planes –Two directions East-West and North-South).

Inter-branch distanc

Record the mean distance between 5 mature branches from the main stem at base of the plant above 30 cm ground. This character is recommended only when the accessions under evolution have a common geographical origin, otherwise the different rate induced by varying growth condition will not represent the true genetic variability
