| dc.description.abstract | Yield of rhizomes (fresh and dry weight) as well as quality parameters like essential oils, oleoresin, gingerol, starch, protein and fibre were determined for 14 popular cultivars of ginger (Zingiber offlcinale Rose.) at 150, 180, 210 and 240 days (full maturity) after planting. The maximum yield of fresh and dry weight of rhizome was obtained in cultivars Nadia and Maran. Though the percentage of essential oils and oleoresin decreases with increasing maturity, the final yield per hectare of these two quality components were maximum at full maturity. Cultivars Maran, Ernad Chernad and Nadia are recommended for fresh rhizomes and Maran, Ernad Chernad, Karakkal and Nadia are recommended for the production of dry ginger. Correlation matrix involving maturity and percentage dry recovery, essential oils, oleoresin, gingerol and crude fibre are described. | en_US |
