| Abstract:
Drumstick (Moringa oleifera) is one of the important perennial vegetables indigenous to northwest India. It is widely grown in the backyards of many households in the southern states. To initiate research efforts on this crop, the Indian Institute of Horticultural Research (IIHR) started with a germplasm collection and characterization. Based on fruit characters, some promising accessions were identified, which could be used for commercial cultivation or utilized in the breeding program. | |
