Abstract/Description: | The flowering scenario of six commercial cultivars of Indian jujube (Gola, Kaithali, Banarsi Kadaka, Umran, Mundia and Seb) at six locations (Anantapur, Sardarkrushinagar, Jobner, Jodhpur, Bikaner and Hisar) distributed from south to north have been pooled for 5 years to explain the variation in flowering behaviour and to assess the possible factor responsible for flowering of these cultivars at different locations. Irrespective of cultivars, peak flowering in ber starts from 17th June and continues up to 22nd October in various parts of the country. In southern India, however, peak of flowering occurs between 17th June and 30th August in different cultivars whereas in north India, the peak blossoming starts by 27th August and completes by 22nd October in commercial cultivars of jujube. Our results demonstrate that flowering in ber is generally dependent upon temperature and relative humidity and particularly on difference in maximum and minimum temperature at various locations. The maximum temperature of 32.4 to 36.9°C and the minimum temperature of 20.7 to 25.3°C along with a temperature difference of 8.6 -13.3°C and morning relative humidity of 70.6 - 82.5 per cent prevailing continuously for at least one month have been found to induce profuse flowering in ber cultivars across the arid region. Since such climatic conditions occur at different time at different latitude and longitude therefore, the flowering scenario in different jujube cultivars varies at different locations of arid ecosystem. |
