There are several types of Cowa found in different locations of the country. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the variations among different types of Cowa. To do so, five Cowa accessions were collected from Barishal and Patualkhali districts of Bangladesh to analyze the morphological variations among the germplasm and also conducted the principal component analysis (PCA) to determine the ideal amount of morphological characteristics that account for a large portion of variability. Morphological traits viz., leaf shape, base, apex, length, width, petiole length, diameter, flower characters, weight of fruit, length of fruit, diameter of fruit, seed number per fruit, length of seed, diameter and weight of seed were recorded. Wide variations were observed in leaf, fruits and seed characters of different Cowa germplasm. The longest leaves (15.70 cm), maximum fruit weight (30.56 g), highest fruit length (4.43 cm), diameter (3.90 cm) and highest seed weight (7.42 g) were found in ACS GC4. The number of seeds per fruit was minimum in cased of ACS GC3. PCA for 17 morphological characters of Cowa elucidated that four principle components with eigen values more than one accounted for 100 per cent of the total variability and the maximum variation was exhibited by the leaf length which accounted for 91.146%. From genotypic scatter plot, it was noticed that ACS GC3 has the highest variability as compared to other four germplasm. Based on the PCA and genotypic scatter plot, germplasm ACS GC3 can be a potential material for future varietal improvement program","PeriodicalId":184698,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Minor Fruits, Medicinal and Aromatic Plants","volume":"257 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139170776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Apart from this, the herbal parts can act as liver intoxicants as well as cardiovascular (CVD) vigor and are also considered to possess free radical scavenging activity. Habitation, season, and harvesting time of the crop have an effect on phytochemical composition that extensively differ from one part to another.

Results showed that, pollen properties were affected from fruit colours and black genotypes generally showed higher pollen properties. The amount of pollen production of one flower was very high ranging from 2.5 to 4.5 million. Pollen viability and germination rates showed sufficient results for successful pollination in Turkish myrtle genotypes. Among pollen germination media, the best pollen germination rate was obtained from 50 ppm boric acid.
