Abstract:
Performance of twelve sweet orange varieties (Casagrande, Sanguinello, Valencia late x Feutrell early, Pineapple, Jaffa x Valencia late, Pineapple x Musambi, Robel, Moro, Navelina, Mineola, Blood red and Ruby blood) was evaluated for their morphological and fruit quality characters during 2012-14. Valencia late x Feutrell early borne maximum number of fruits per plant (223.75), maximum number of segments per fruit (14.25), maximum TSS (12.35°brix) and sugar acid ratio (12.08), while the number of seeds per fruit was minimum (3.0). Robel and Jaffa x Valencia late proved more acidic (2.08%). Mineola plant was the tallest (3.33 m) while Moro was shortest (2.32 m). The shoot of Navelina was thick (1.47 cm) and internode length was also maximum (2.07 cm). The fruits of Pine apple were bigger (7.20 cm) while Blood red had heavier fruits (257.50 g).
