Assessment of the pulp quality of some rare indigenous mango (Mangifera indica L.) varieties of West Bengal, India
Journal Title: International Journal of Experimental Research and Review - Year 2021, Vol 26, Issue 3
Abstract
The mango (Mangifera indica L.) varieties in India are some of the most diverse in the world. Fruit makes a substantial contribution to the world's economy and food supply. There has been a rapid shift in the natural habitat of the local mango in recent years owing to changes in the species' economic, biotic, and other conditions. Indigenous mango varieties need to be documented and characterised to use the genetic resource better and plan future breeding programmes. It is clear from the descriptions that there are several distinct types available. The mango pulp has varying degrees of juiciness, ranging from mild to high. Because of their limited availability in the local market, four unique, rare indigenous mango types were chosen for this research. The pulp of their fruits differed somewhat from one another. Mango variety must be saved and kept in field gene banks in order to make the most of genetic heterogeneity on the farm and maximize yields. As a result of the fact that this is just preliminary research, future investigations should concentrate on analysing the genetic variation of the mango fruit in its pulp.
