Abstract: A new and distinct variety of grapevine which is somewhat remotely similar to the ‘Thompson Seedless’ grapevine, but from which it is distinguished in a number of respects by producing fruit with a delayed period of cluster ripening occurring in mid October for harvesting and shipment, or approximately four weeks after the fruit produced by the ‘Thompson Seedless’ grapevine and wherein the fruit is large, having a mild flavor, a light green skin coloration and a firm, crisp flesh.
Abstract: This invention relates to a new distinct early maturing, high seed and husk yielding variety of psyllium (Plantago ovata) designated as var. ‘Mayuri’ with the distinct pigment marker of the panicles relatable to the maturity thereby indicating the right harvesting stage to prevent the seed shattering, a problem in psyllium. This variety was developed by mutation breeding (gamma rays irradiation) and propagated by seeds for commercial cultivation. The new variety could be differentiated from the other variety through unique RAPD profile and has been tested for uniformity and stability of characters defined. Psyllium plant ‘Mayuri’ with stage marker and early maturity.
