Morphological and phenological characteristics in accessions of Coriandrum sativum var. microcarpum DC. and Coriandrum sativum var. sativum
Keywords:
coriander; morphological characteristics; phenological characteristics; var. microcarpum; var. sativumAbstract
The aim of this investigation was to study the variation in some morphological characteristics and vegetation period duration in coriander accessions from var. microcarpum and var. sativum in soil and climatic conditions of Southeast Bulgaria. During the period 2010-2012 the morphological characteristics of 20 accessions of Coriandrum sativum L. subsp. microcarpum DC. var. microcarpum (DC.) Hegi and 20 accessions of Coriandrum sativum L. subsp. sativum var. sativum were studied. Significant differences between accessions from var. microcarpum and var. sativum were founded for morphological traits: anthocyanin coloration of stem, number of basal leaves, length of the longest basal leaf, shape of the longest basal leaf, habit of basal leaves and anthocyanin coloration of petals. Botanical variety had greatest influence on anthocyanin coloration of stem, number of basal leaves, length of the longest basal leaf and shape of the longest basal leaf. Significant differеnces between accessions from varieties microcarpum and sativum were recorded for: beginning of stem elongation, beginning of flowering, beginning of ripening, ripening duration and vegetation period duration. Accessions from var. sativum had shorter period to beginning of stem elongation, flowering and ripening and shorter vegetation period compared to accessions from var. microcarpum.
