Abstract:
The experiment entitled “Studies on genetic diversity for morphological and biochemical aspects of mango (Mangifera indica L.) Genotypes” was carried out during the year 2019 and 2020 on the basis of morphological characters of germplasm. A survey, collection and evaluation through screening of mango genotypes in the areas of Malihabad region of Lucknow and analytical work was done in the Horticulture laboratory of the Department of Horticulture, SAST, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow (U.P), India. The thirty mango genotypes were collected and evaluated for distinct morphological characters. These genotypes showed a wide range of variability in physical characters of fruit viz., fruit colour, fruit size, fruit weight, fruit length, fruit breadth, fruit volume, fruit specific gravity and fruit firmness respectively.
