Abstract:

An investigation entitled “Genetic variability for physical parameters among identified distinct genotypes of tamarind” was conducted at the Department of Fruit Science, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola during the years 2023-2024 with objectives to evaluate the different tamarind genotypes based on physical parameters. Fourteen genotypes were used in the study. Ripe fruits were harvested from specific tamarind trees, and among studied genotypes AKCHT-11 was found to be the superior genotype in pod length (cm), width (cm), and thickness (cm), as well as the highest pod weight (g), pulp weight (g), shell weight (g), rag weight (g), seed weight (g) and pulp recovery (%). The maximum number of pods/ kg and highest pulp to seed ratio are observed in the genotype AKCHT-6. The highest pulp to shell ratio is observed in the variety Pratishthan. The higher number of seeds per pod and yield per plant (kg) recorded in AKCHT-12 genotype.


Keywords: Tamarind, genotypes, genetic variability, physical parameters
