Abstract:
The work was carried out during the year 2021-22 in different genotypes of Nerium planted within the premises of Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur. The experimental materials utilized for the study consisting eight genotypes of Nerium named as RLC-1, RLC- 2, RLC-3, RLC-4, RLC-5, RLC-6, RLC-7 and RLC-8. Experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with four replications. The morphological observations were analysed as descriptors provided by UPOV for the conduct of DUS test on Nerium (2009), published by UPOV, Geneva. Morphological characters of Nerium genotypes revealed that, characters like stem: branching, leaf blade: incurving of margin, leaf blade: profile in cross section were similar in all genotypes whereas other characters show variations with respect to parameters under study.
