20. Three gladiolus varieties developed by Prof. Anil Kumar Singh, Dr. Anjana
Sisodia and Dr. Akhilesh Kumar Pal were released. The details of the varieties
are given below.
1. Malviya Kiran - A white coloured gladiolus variety with dark red-purple coloured
throat on lower petals developed through gamma irradiation. It is a mid season variety
that takes about 81 days from corm planting to flowering. It produces long spikes with
about 19 florets/spike. This variety is a good multiplier which produces about 2.33
corms/plant.
2. Malviya Shatabdi - A gladiolus variety produces white coloured flowers with pinkish
tinge. It is developed through gamma irradiation. It has red throat on lower petals. It is
a mid season variety that takes about 83 days from corm planting to flowering. It
produces about 16.5 florets/spike. This variety is very good multiplier that produces
about 3.00 corms/plant.
3. Malviya Kundan - It is a light yellow coloured gladiolus variety developed through
gamma irradiation. It has compact and robust spikes that produce about 17 bigger size
florets in a spike. Florets of this variety are ruffled. It blooms in about 101 days from
corm planting to flowering. This variety is a good multiplier which produces about
2.00 corms and 47.46 cormels per plant.
