The cultivars Kanti (245 days), CLT-325 (235 days), Rajapuri (225 days) and PTS-24 (216 days) are medium duration types which are showed better performance. CLT-325, Kanti and PTS-24 are found resistant to leaf blotch and shoot borer compare to rest of the cultivars under study. Correlation study revealed that fresh rhizome yield per hectare exhibited positive and significant correlation with plant height (0.394), number of tillers per plant (0.325), number of leaves per plant (0.298), petiole length (0.555), number of mother rhizome per plant (0.473), number of primary fingers per plant (0.456), number of secondary fingers per plant (0.492), weight of mother rhizome (0.548), weight of secondary fingers (0.425), length of primary fingers (0.603) and fresh rhizome yield per plant (0.811). Among the turmeric cultivars studied, Kanti, CLT-325, PTS-24 and Rajapuri showed better performance with respect to growth, yield and quality parameters and found promising suitable cultivar for rainfed situations of hilly region of Karnataka.
