 ABSTRACT

The field experiment was conducted to study the “Interaction effect of varieties and sowing dates on growth and quality of radish in southern agro climatic zone of Andhra Pradesh’’ was carried out during kharif season of 2014-15 at Horticulture College and Research Institute, Dr. Y.S.R. Horticultural University, Anantharajupet, Y.S.R. District of Andhra Pradesh. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design with four varieties of radish viz., Local variety, ArkaNishant, Japanese White and Pusa Chetki and four sowing dates viz., second fortnight of July, first fortnight of August, second fortnight of August and first fortnight of September. Maximum germination percentage (98.33%), plant height (24.98 cm at 30 DAS and 60.54 cm at harvest) and shoot weight (211.14 g) was obtained with Japanese White sown during first fortnight of September (V3S4), while in Arka Nishant maximum number of leaves plant-1 (36.90), leaf length (36.90 cm) and leaf area (245.33 cm2) were recorded with first fortnight of September (V2S4) sowing.

Key words: Varieties, Sowing dates, Radish, Growth and Yield
