Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) is one the best known among various
taxa of economic, medicinal (anti-cancerous, healing, blood
purifier properties), ornamental and cultural importance of the
genus Curcuma. India and Thailand with at least 40 species in each
area have the highest diversity. Genetic variability in a
population can be partitioned into heritable and non-heritable
variation with the aid of genetic parameters such as variance,
genotypic coefficient of variation, heritability and genetic
advance, which serve as a basis for selection of some outstanding
genotypes from existing ones. Cluster analysis have proved to be
effective methods in grouping turmeric accessions that may
facilitate effective utilization of the accession in crop
improvement programmes through selection, as conventional breeding
is difficult in this crop. Moreover, correlation and path analysis
of morphological traits indicated importance of desirable traits
for strengthening the turmeric breeding programme for higher
rhizome yield.
