EVALUATION OF THE ELITE CLONES OF KARI ISHADA MANGO (MANGIFERA INDICA L.) FOR THE MORPHOLOGICAL PARAMETERS OF THE FRUITS
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
The investigation was carried out to evaluate the morphological parameters of the elite clones of Kari Ishada mango variety in major growing parts of Uttara Kannada district. Among the 31 Kari Ishada trees selected in the present investigation, the fruit yield was highest in ‘KIS-3’ (624 kg/tree). The maximum fruit weight (477.25 g), peel weight (125.33 g), fruit length (101.05 mm) and fruit volume (465 ml) was found in ‘KIS-25’. The maximum pulp weight (310.25 g), fruit width (100.95 mm), fruit thickness (92.17 mm), pulp percentage (69.56 %), pulp to stone ratio (7.89), fruit to stone ratio (11.28) and lowest stone percentage (9.05 %) was recorded in ‘KIS-3’. The highest pulp to peel ratio (4.47), lowest peel weight (48.50 g) and lowest peel percentage (18.89 %) was found in ‘KIS-17’. The stone weight was lowest in ‘KIS-11’ (29.00 g).
