Abstract

Ajmer Green Coriander-1 (AGCr-1) variety of coriander has been
released for leafy purpose and powdery mildew resistance for off
season cultivation in Rajasthan state. The average yield of green
leaves was 2732.89 kg/ha under shade net conditions. This variety
has powdery mildew resistance with percent disease score of 21.69
%. The essential oil content of leaves and seeds was observed 0.0
5% and 0.36 %, respectively. The variety was recommended for
release in Institute Research Advisory (IRC) Committee Meeting held
at ICAR-National Research Centre on Seed Spices, Ajmer and
submitted State Seed Sub-Committee, Govt. of Rajasthan and
notified vide S.O. No./1480 (E); dated 01.04.2021 for commercial
