Abstract:

Alternate Bearing is an alternating pattern of large and small crops occurring in many fruit species that is internally regulated by the plant. Alternate bearing in mango appeared to be related to complex relationships between vegetative and reproductive growths and it is varied according to the cultivar. Flowering is the main event that set the stage for mango production each year. For the attaining the fruit flower initiation is very important and it is very complex phenomena in mango. Flowering is the main event that set the stage for mango production each year. For the attaining the fruit flower initiation is very important and it is very complex phenomena in mango. In mango trees flowering is make them especially challenging for physiologists, breeders, and growers. North, east and central Indian commercial cultivars showed the biennial bearing is very serious problem, while most of the south Indian varieties bear regularly. Therefore, different control measures for the biennial bearing are application of different chemicals, smudging, pruning etc. most widely used in view of its high potential mango production. This review classifies the multiple hypotheses as internal, genetic, carbohydrate resources and hormones or environmental, abiotic and biotic stresses. The biennial bearing or alternate bearing habit of mango (Mangifera indica L.) is a major problem for its commercial cultivation for getting expected productivity, alternate bearing, alternate year cropping, irregular bearing or cropping, periodicity in mango cropping, biennial bearing, are all synonymous terms which are different from the unfruitfulness and shy cropping.
