| dc.description.abstract | The present investigation entitled “Effect of leaf to fruit ratio on growth, yield and quality of custard apple cv. GJCA-1.” was conducted at FRS, Madhadi Baug, College of Horticulture, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh during the year 2021-22. The treatments comprised of eight level viz., T1: (Leaf: fruit, 4:1), T2: (Leaf: fruit, 6:1), T3: (Leaf: fruit, 8:1), T4: (Leaf: fruit, 10:1), T5: (Leaf: fruit, 12:1), T6: (Leaf: fruit, 14:1), T7: (Leaf: fruit, 16:1), T8: Control. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications. The result indicated that among eight treatment, maximum leaf area (87.78 cm2 ), maximum chlorophyll content (52.83 SPAD) and maximum leaf carbohydrate content (0.84 %) were observed in T6 (Leaf: fruit, 14:1), maximum fruit weight (178.33 g), maximum fruit length (78.31 mm), maximum fruit width (79.40 mm) and maximum fruit volume (151.57 ml) was observed in T6 (Leaf: fruit, 14:1), maximum pulp weight (79.33 g), maximum pulp: seed ratio (18.58) and maximum pulp: rind ratio (1.29) was noted in T3 (Leaf: fruit, 8:1), maximum yield kg per plant (8.03 kg/plant), maximum yield tonne per hectare (6.69 t/ha) was recorded in T6 (Leaf: fruit, 14:1), maximum total sugar (11.77 %), maximum reducing sugar (3.80 %) and maximum non reducing sugar (7.98 %) was recorded in T5 (Leaf: fruit, 12:1) at harvest. Therefore, leaf to fruit 14:1 showed the better performance in terms of leaf area, chlorophyll content, leaf carbohydrate content, fruit weight, fruit length, fruit width, fruit volume, yield kg per plant and yield tonne per hectare. In case of pulp weight, pulp to seed ratio and pulp to rind ratio, leaf to fruit 8:1 showed the better performance and in case of total sugar, reducing sugar and non reducing sugar, leaf to fruit 12:1 showed the better performance in custard apple cv. GJCA-1. | |
