Abstract

The various curd size of the varieties i.e. Pusa Snowball K-1 has a direct effect on seed yield and quality parameters in cauliflowers. A wide spectrum of variation in respect of seed yield contributing characters and seed vigour parameters among various curd size was noticed. It can be concluded that among the treatments extra large size curd showed maximum potential for seed yield while extra large and medium curd size were promising for seed quality parameters.
