Abstract :
Response of seed yield of corriander to phosphorus and row spacing was studied at Malakandhare, Horticulture Farm, Agricultural University, Peshawar, Pakistan during the year 2002-03. Four levels of phosphorus (0, 15, 30 and 45 kg/ha) were applied at four different row spacings (15, 25, 35 and 45 cm). The result indicated that different levels of phosphorus and row spacing had significant effect on all parameters, however, their interaction effect was non significant in most parameters with the exception of the seed yield hectare^-1. Maximum numbers of umbels plant^-1 (47.00) and 1000 seed weight (10.32 g) were obtained with 45 kg P/ha at 45 cm row spacing. Whereas, the maximum days to first umbel maturity (30.0) and days to last umbel maturity (25.33) were recorded in control treatments. However, maximum seed yield (1360.0 kg/ha) was obtained when 45 kg P/ha was applied at row spacing of 25 cm.
