 ABSTRACT

The present study was carried out under semi-arid conditions of Haryana at experimental orchard of CCS HAU, Regional Research Station, Bawal. The plants were selected randomly and earmarked randomly and their branches were tagged in each direction for various parameters such as leaf and fruit pulp-shell parameters of different bael germplasm. The leaf area, fresh weight and dry weight per leaf were observed maximum in NB-17, whereas petiole length was maximum in NB-9, while minimum in Seedling-3. Chlorophyll content was reported maximum in CISHB-2 and minimum in NB-9. Pulp weight, shell weight and shell thickness per fruit was maximum in Samastipur Selection. Pulp percent, shell percent and pulp-shell ratio were differ non-significantly.

Key words: Leaf parameters, Variability, Bael germplasm (Aegle marmelos)
