Abstract: Coriander is considered both as herb and spice. The experiment was conducted at Horticultural College and Research Institute, Venkataramannagudem during summer 2015 under 50 percent green colour shadenet and in rabi under open field conditions with 66 coriander genotypes and four checks to select an ideal plant type for green leaf purpose with desirable growth, yield and quality parameters (Chlorophyll content and Vitamin C) which are significantly superior to checks sadhana, sudha, suguna, LCC-234. Compared to other entries evaluated the genotype LCC-176 recorded maximum yield (10.54t/ha) over the best check sadhana. In the present investigation, genotypes suitable for green foliage in coriander with desirable traits have been identified for off season cultivation in summer under 50 percent green colour shadenet and in rabi under open field conditions. However, it is better to grow in 50 percent green colour shadenet in summer for their better performance.
