Abstract
Intensive survey was conducted in different areas of district Ganderbal and Budgam during 2009. Significant variability was recorded with different morphological and physico-chemical properties of pomegranate genotypes. Yield per tree ranged from (13.80-58.40Kg) and yield efficiency (0.30-1.58Kg/cm2), fruit length (5.06-7.30 cm), fruit diameter (6.16-8.29 cm), fruit weight (120.25-297.50 g), total aril weight (58-194.25 g), weight per aril (0.18-0.29 g). Fruit chemical varied from TSS (12-16 %), juice content (32.85-60.12 %), acidity (0.31-0.46 %), TSS/acid ratio (26.09-45.96), ascorbic acid content (9.23-20.26), reducing sugar content (6.22-9.23 %), total sugars content (7.31-11.23 %) and anthocyanin content (9.65- 19.23 mg/100 g of fruit). The data presented may be helpful in understanding pest resistance among pomegranate.
