Abstract:
The study was conducted 2015 to 2017 to find out “Biochemical Characterization of Hybrid Progenies of Mango (Mangifera indica L.)”. The objective of the present investigation was to study the diversity of the hybrid derivatives at biochemical level. For this study forty-two hybrid derivatives of mango were selected from existing Germplasm. Regarding biochemical characters, hybrid-6 had the highest (20.85 °B) total soluble solids, the highest total sugar content was recorded in hybrid-26 (17.46%), highest reducing sugars in hybrid-8 (4.77%). The highest non-reducing sugar content was recorded in hybrid-26 (14.32%). The maximum acidity of pulp was recorded in hybrid-46 (0.45%), pH of pulp was recorded highest in hybrid-68 (4.90), Hybrid-1 revealed highest β-carotene content (2458.5 μg/100g); highest ascorbic acid content was recorded in hybrid-46 (37 mg/100g). TSS to acidity ratio was found highest in hybrid-35 (101.35) while a highest sugar to acidity ratio was recorded in hybrid-21 (83.47). The highest fibre content was recorded in hybrid-1 (0.97%).
