Parsley plant height
Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Nyman ex A. W. Hill
Parsley plant height is a morphological trait defined as the distance from the soil level to the top of the leaf rosette in the first year or to the inflorescence in the second year of growth.
In the reference 25 varieties crop Parsley, where this is mentioned in the description.
For parsley, plant height is an important quantitative trait used in DUS testing for variety evaluation. In the first year of vegetation, the plant forms a leaf rosette ranging from 20–25 cm to 90 cm in height. In the second year, during the formation of the flowering stem, the height can reach 50–150 cm.
This trait determines cultivation technology: rosette height influences the feasibility of mechanized harvesting and product marketability. Harvesting of fresh greens is performed when plants reach a height of 10–25 cm. Breeding is focused on optimizing height for ease of bunching and increasing the yield of marketable biomass.
