| dc.description.abstract | Studies on the performance of mango (Mangifera indica L.) cultivars Alphonso, Dashehari, Mallika and Sindhu grown under close spacing (5 x 5 m ) was carried out in 9 years old trees during the cropping year of 2011 in a private mango garden near to Bangalore city, Karnataka, India. Length of new shoot (23.07 cm) and number of leaves per shoot (21.58) was found maximum in Dashehari and Sindhu cultivars respectively. Maximum number of shoots per square meter area of the canopy was noticed in Cv. Dashehari (40.03). Estimated fruit yield was found maximum in mango Cv. Mallika (26.82 t/ha) followed by Dashehari, (25.34 t/ha) Alphonso (17.86 t/ha) and Sindhu (15.04 t/ha). This yield is nearly two to two and a half times more than the conventionally spaced orchard. Size and weight of fruit from the high density orchards of all the cultivars were comparable with that of fruits from traditionally spaced garden. The chemical compositions of the fruit as well as organoleptic qualities of the fruit were equally good as that of fruits harvested from traditionally spaced garden. | en_US |
