Summary, etc. Morphological and compatibili ty s t ud i e s were conducted in <br/>six commercially important varieties of A. andreanum. viz. <br/>Honeymoon red, chilli red, Kalympong orange, Kalympong red, Pink <br/>and white. <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>The <br/> <br/><br/>varieties <br/> <br/><br/>s how <br/> <br/><br/>distinct <br/> <br/><br/>differences <br/> <br/><br/>in <br/> <br/><br/>the <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>morphological/floral characters. The larsest plants were <br/>observed in the variety Pink and the shortest variety was <br/>Kalympong red. The average number of leaves produced per year <br/>ranged from 3.5 to 6.5. The leaf plastochron duration was lowest <br/>in the variety White and longest duration was observed in Chilli <br/>red. The commercially valuable small sized leaves we re produced <br/>by White and Chilli red varieties. The bigger sized leaves were <br/>produced by the Pink variety. All the varieties showed <br/>variations in the colour of petioles and young leaves. The <br/>number of spadices produced annually by a plant varied from four <br/>to eight. The duration between the emergence of two successive <br/>spadices ranged from 43 to 51 nays. The spathe size index of all <br/>the varieties were observed. The varieties Pink and Kalympong <br/>red produced super large f lowers and the smallest flowers were <br/>developed in the white variety. <br/> <br/>All the varieties showed a wide range of colours; darker <br/>shades of red, orange, pink and white. <br/>The texture of the spathe was either smooth thick and glossy <br/>without prominent veins or deeply veined and blistered. <br/>There was significant correlation between leaf size and <br/>spathe size. The largest leaf size and spathe size was observed <br/>in the variety Pink. <br/>The candle was long and fleshy in the variety Pink and <br/>shortest in the White variety. The candles had either a single <br/>colour or seen in two or more bands of colours. <br/>The maximum angle between the spadix and plane of the spathe <br/>was observed in the Honeymoon red variety. The angle was <br/>smallest in Chilli red. The flowers of anthurium which are <br/>arranged in a spiral manner varied in numbers in the• differents <br/>varieties. The maximum number of flowers were produced in Pink <br/>and Honeymoon red Varieties. The spathe candle ratio was greater <br/>in Kalynpong red and smallest in White. The flowers of anthurium <br/>are bisexual, regular and protogynous. All the six varieties <br/>under the present study showed a distinct interphase. The <br/>longest life of unfertilised spadix was observed in Honeymoon r2.d <br/>and Kalympong red (3.5 months). For fertilised spadices, this <br/>period ranged from 4.5 - 8 months. <br/> <br/>Compatibility analysis was done in all the six A. andreanum<br/> <br/><br/> <br/>varieties <br/> <br/><br/>depending on the response of the cultivars to <br/><br/> <br/>intervarietal hybridisation at three levels: percentage candles <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>bearing <br/> <br/><br/>fruits, <br/> <br/><br/>percentage fruit set/seed set and seed <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>gernination. <br/>The average percentage<br/>of candles bearing fruits waS <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>maximum for the variety White and lowest for the variety <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>Kalympong red. <br/> <br/><br/>In this present investigation, the maximum <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>average number of fruits was produced in the Pink and Honeymoon <br/>red varieties. The maxinum percentage of fruits were harvested <br/>. <br/>from the cross P x HR (52.3%). The duration of fruit maturity <br/>period ranged from 4.5 to 8 months. The average duration of <br/>fruit maturity "as maximum for the variety White. The colour of <br/>fruits varied in different varieties. All the cross combinations <br/>of a variety showed the same colour. <br/>The berries are usually single seeded and sometimes double <br/>seeded. Pink and Honeymoon red varieties produced larqer s i z e d <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>seeds. <br/> <br/><br/>The Kalympong varieties produced comparatively smaller <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>sized seeds. <br/> <br/><br/>Seed germination was observed in all the 23 <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>combinations obtained. <br/> <br/><br/>The maximum average germination was <br/> <br/><br/> <br/>observed in combinations with white as the female parent (63.4%) <br/>and the lowest germination in the variety kalympong orange. <br/>tI <br/>I <br/><br/> <br/> <br/><br/><br/>\l\Lt8''-\ <br/> <br/>HR x <br/>Among the 28 cross combinations done, <br/>the highly compatible <br/>crosses were HR x P and P x HR. <br/>The cross combinations, <br/>CR, HR x KR, CR x W, KR x P, P x P and W x KR had medium fruit <br/>set and high germination. The incompatible cross combinations <br/>were KO x KR, CR x HR, CR x P, W x CR, KR x KR and W x KO. <br/>
