Abstract

Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius Linn.) produces flower heads in different positions of mother plant and the period of flower initiation and maturation vary with each position. Sundaralingam (1995) and Akilan (1986) reported variations in maturation and translocation of assimilates from source to sink of different umbel order in carrot and coriander, respectively. Information on seed quality of safflower as influenced by position of heads is scanty. Hence, studies were conducted with safflower cv. K1, in the Department of Seed Science and Technology, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India.

Keywords: Safflower, inflorescense, seed quality, seed yield
