Abstract: The present investigation was carried out during the year 2017-2018 at Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur (M.P.). The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four replication comprising six treatment (different genotypes of ber - viz, Gola, Banarasi karaka, Umran, Jawahar ber-1, Jawahar ber-2, Jawahar ber-3.).
It was found that the various chemical parameters like TSS, total sugars, reducing sugars, non reducing sugars and ascorbic acid were found to be increased during the entire course (fruit setting to maturity) of growth and development period. Jawahar ber-3 had the highest T.S.S. content (22.28 Brix). The highest total sugar (9.21%) was noticed in jawahar ber-3. Umran had the highest reducing sugar content (4.64%). The highest ascorbic acid content was noticed in Jawahar ber-2 (96.60 mg/100 g of pulp).
