Plant Growth Hormones and Micro-Tuberization in Breaking the Seed Dormancy of (Boiss.) Fedts.

is a valuable medicinal plant with limited production but high market demand. It thrives predominantly in high-altitude regions. The main challenges hindering its widespread cultivation are seed dormancy and a lengthy seed-to-seed cycle, making its large-scale cultivation difficult.

Morpho-Biochemical characterization of Kalazeera ( Boiss. Fedts) germplasm grown in Global temperate ecologies.

The present investigation explores the variability of populations belonging to different regions. Variability among 74 genotypes for thirty-seven traits (29 quantitative and 8 qualitative) were studied to ascertain the population structure of the . Among the agro-morphological traits, wide range of variability was recorded in tuber shape, tuber colour, seed shape, seed colour, growth habit, leaf shape, leaf colour, umbel shape, umbel colour, plant height (22.

Unraveling the Variability of Essential Oil Composition in Different Accessions of Collected from Different Temperate Micro-Climates.

The present investigation was performed to evaluate the variability of the essential oil composition present in the seed extract of Kala zeera ( Bioss.) obtained from different geographical zones of Northwestern-Himalayan using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrum (GC-MS). The results of the GC-MS analysis revealed significant differences in the essential oil content.
