Physico-Chemical Characteristics of Some Mango (Mangifera indicd) Varieties and Hybrids

摘要

Fifteen mango varieties/hybrids were evaluated for physico-chemical characteristics of their fruits grown at Agriculture Research Station, Balajigapade, Chikkaballapur taluk, Kolar district (Karaataka). Mallika, Baneshan and Rama were found to have higher fruit weight, volume, length and width of the fruit (yield attributes). Similarly, higher pulp recovery and lower skin and stone weight were observed in Sindhu, Mallika and Baneshan. Highest TSS was noticed in Rama (22.23B°) followedby Mallika (21.86B°). Dashehari recorded higher total sugars (16.60%), non-reducing sugars (12.56%) and sugar acid ratio (51.8:1).
