Natural source of lutein: Marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) Introduction,
cultivation, selection and quality improvement under mid hill
conditions of Himachal Pradesh
Kiran Kaul * & Y S Bedi
RRL Extenti on Centre, Palampur 176061 (H.P.)
Abstract
Lutein (C4oH'602) is the primary xanthophyll pi gment th at produces orange co lor in mari gold (Tageles erecla L. )
fl owers, co mpos ing roughly 90% ofth e petal s identifi ed pigments. This pi gment from mari go ld is currentl y used as
add iti ve in poultry feed, food coloring and neutrace uti ca lsThe increas ing demand for mari gold pi gment has paved
the way for genetic upgradation and expansion of cultivation of thi s fl ower within the country, Eight accessions of
Tageles erecla L. collected from various locati ons in India were introduced and cultivated under mid hill s of Kangra
Valley (H.P.) following uniform cultural practices. The accessions were assessed for growth performance, fl ower
co lor, xan thophyll content and fl ower yield . Xanthophyll conten t was found hi ghest in orange fl owers in all the
accessions. Promising accessions were selected and inbred to get pure lines with oran ge fl ower heads, The fl ower
yield of the pure lines ran ged from 61-78 qt/ha and xanthophyll yield varied from (2.5 -5 .0 kg/ha). The pure lines with
xanthophyll content 01'0.71 , 1.4 and 0.9 were se lected and combined by single and polycross method fo r hybrid and
co mposite seed production. Th e fl ower yie ld of the proge ny rai sed from hybrid and composite seed out yielded
th e inbred lin es du e to heterosis. It is concluded th at Mari go ld can be c ulti va ted as a successful indu strial crop
in H,P. and the re is grea t scope for its improvement for xa ntho ph yll s (lutein).
