Abstract:
Kagzi lime is one the most preferred and demanding fruit crops in Jammu and Kashmir (UT) around the year due to its nutritional value, higher economic return and wider adaptability in rainfed areas. The present study was sought to determine the genotypes of acid lime in Jammu sub-tropics for evaluating their vegetative and physical characteristics during the years 2015-2016 Jammu, subtropics- J&K (UT). During the investigation, it was revealed that the maximum plant height was noted in KL₃, KL₄ and KL₁₀. Whereas, in terms of flowering time, it was observed that flowering time of selected strains were registered during the months of February-March and June- July. Meanwhile early flowering initiation, fruit setting, fruit surface; (Smooth) and fruit colour (Light yellow) was noticed in strain KL_1.
