| Shrnutí: | Even though about twelve improved cardamom varieties have been released in India, many of the
farmers of the traditional cardamom tracts of the country use farmer selected landraces as planting material
and hence the importance of such landraces is not questionable. A study has been carried out to assess the
performance of ten elite landraces of cardamom collected from Idukki district of Kerala state of India namely
Panikulangara-1, Panikulangara-2, Njallani, Vali green gold, Palakkudi, PNS Vaigai, Vander cardamom, Ela
Rani-1, Ela Rani-2 and Ela Rani-3 using ICRI-2, an improved variety released by Indian Cardamom Research
Institute as control. Observations on seven growth characters, nine yield characters and four quality characters
were made and compared. The present findings indicate the potential of selecting genotypes like Ela Rani- 2,
Ela Rani- 3, Palakkudi and Vali green gold for further trials and evaluation protocols so that varieties with
significantly superior characters could be developed. |
