Surveys were conducted in the districts Gonda, Basti, Gorakhpur, Deoria, Azamgargh, Varanasi, Jaunpur, Sultanpur and Barabanki of Uttar Pradesh during the year 2008-2009. A total of 48 genotypes having desirable traits were collected and physico-chemical analysis of fruits was done. Genotypes showed considerable variation for fruit morphological and physico-chemical traits. The number of fruits per tree varied from (110- 315), fruit yield per tree (94.50-356.50 kg), fruit weight (0.55-3.10 kg) among the different genotypes collected. The fruit characteristics, viz., fruit length ranged from (7.70-17.5 cm), fruit circumference (29.0-61.0 cm), number of seeds per fruit (33-200), number of seed sacs per fruit (9-20), shell weight per fruit (0.10-0.73 kg), shell thickness (2.0-5.80 mm), seed weight per fruit (2.8-15.8 g), weight of crude fibre (0.79-2.03 g/100 g pulp), pulp percentage (50.77-73.03) and shell percentage (17.15-32.31) among the different genotypes. With regards to biochemical parameters, TSS ranged from (26.0-44.4°B), acidity (0.30-0.56%), total sugars (13.58-25.53%), reducing sugar (5.59-11.30%), non reducing sugar (4.30-17.07%), vitamin-C content (5.09-18.92 mg/100 g pulp), tannin content (2.01-4.53%) and total carotenoids (1.38-2.72 mg/100 g pulp) among the different genotypes analyzed. On the basis of overall assessment, seven genotypes, viz., T2, T14, T15, T20, T31, T44 and T47 were found most promising.Abstract
