“…Accession MZU-HAMP-PS-9 recorded the lowest fruit diameter of 10.39 cm. Our study is in close conformity with previous studies in sweet orange 24 and pomegranate 25 . In the present study, the highest fruit volume was recorded in MZU-HAMP-PS-31 (2316.87 cc), followed by MZU-HAMP-PS-32 (2116.93 cc), and the lowest value was recorded in MZU-HAMP-PS-9 (386.87 cc).…”

“…Similarly, MZU-HAMP-PS-2 recorded maximum seed number (131.33) and MZU-HAMP-PS-32 recorded the lowest value (31.67). Differences in seed number among various accessions in sweet orange 24 and guava 28 were reported earlier. Different pummelo germplasms indicated significant to highly significant differences in seed weight (Table 2).…”

“…Similarly, MZU-HAMP-PS-31 recorded maximum TSS-acid ratio (14.66), which was significantly higher than most of the germplasms, except MZU-HAMP-PS-32 (14. and MZU-HAMP-PS-24 (11.84), with which it was found statistically at par. Previous studies have also reported differences in TSS-acid ratio among various genotypes in sweet orange 24 and aonla 29 . In any table fruit, buyers always prefer fruits with maximum weight and size as well as maximum pulp content and ratio of pulp and peel.…”

Thirty-five pummelo (Citrus grandis (L.) Osbeck) genotypes were assessed with respect to their quality parameters considered most essential with respect to horticultural aspects. Among the genotypes, significant to highly significant differences were observed in all the parameters. Different fruit physical parameters such as weight, diameter, length, volume pulp weight, pulp thickness, pulp-peel ratio and seed number varied significantly among the genotypes. Similarly, there were high level of differences among the genotypes with respect to chemical parameters of the fruits. The juice content varied from 13.64% to 43.56%, vitamin C from 17.40 to 52.70 mg/100 ml, total soluble solids from 7.73% to 11.67%, acidity from 0.76% to 1.86%, total sugars from 7.47% to 9.95% and sugar-acid ratio from 4.88 to 12.58. The present study reveals that parameters such as weight of the fruit, length of the fruit, diameter, volume, pulp weight, pulp-peel ratio, juice, TSS, acidity, ascorbic acid, total sugars and sugar-acid ratio can be considered as selection criteria for future breeding programmes in pummelo. The high level of differences with respect to various physical and chemical parameters of the fruits shows the great scope for superior genotype selection based on these particular parameters for genetic improvement programmes in near future.

“…Seed width was recorded highest in SGHT2R2 (8.04, 7.86 and 7.95 mm ) and lowest was recorded in SGHT1R3 with 5.43mm, 5.42mm and 5.42mm in the first year, second year and pooled data respectively. Difference in seed number, seed length and seed width among accessions was reported in earlier studies[2],[5],[8].…”

“…It has also long been used to treat food poisoning in humans and animals. The fruits reportedly have numerous pharmaceutically important bioactive compounds which are cytotoxic, antimicrobial, antihypertensive, antipyretic, anti-diabetic and appetite stimulant potentials [11], [12], [14], [8]. The peel is rich in caffeic acid, making it a strong antioxidant compound which helps in preventing fibrosis, oxidative stress and even cancer [10].…”

The work was undertaken to study the variability in Citrus macroptera from five Garo hills district. Many important horticultural plant species, viz. Citrus are known to have originated from this region. Citrus macroptera Mont. is one of the endangered, semi-wild species which have found to exist in various parts of NE region, including Meghalaya. Thirty accession of Citrus macroptera from five different districts of Garo Hills, Meghalaya were collected to study its variability in quantity and quality parameters. In the study significant to highly significant differences were observed among the genotypes. The analysis of variance for different parameters such as tree height, tree girth, leaf length, leaf width, fruit width, fruit length, fruit weight, number of fruit segment, rind thickness, number of seeds per segment, seed length, and seed width varied significantly among accession. Variability among accession collected from different location shows the great scope for genetically potential genotypes for cultivation and also for their exploitation in plant breeding programme.
