Evaluation of morphological and nutritional value of jamun (Syzygium cumini L.). Germplasm


Author(s): Arti Yadav and Pratibha Singh and RN Kewat

Abstract: The present study was conducted to evaluate five advanced germplasm of jamun for morphological and nutritional value during 2015-16 at the students Student’s Instructional Farm of Narendra Deva University Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj Ayodhya (U.P.) India. A significant variation was detected for all traits suggested that there was considerable variability among germplasm. The colour of jamun germplasm was recorded dark purple, reddish black to purple the fruit shape was recorded round to oblong The fruit size was recorded in length 2.58 to 2.85and breadth 1.86 to 2.25cm Specific gravity was found in range of 1.21 to 1.26. Maximum specific gravity was found in NJ12 (1.26) the nutritional content such as Total moisture content was found in the range of 15.17 to 16.36%. Maximum total moisture content was found in the germplasm NJ12 (16.17%). Total Sugar content was found in range of 5.16 to 5.58 per cent. Maximum total sugar was found in NJ12 (5.58%) On the basis of overall germplasm were found superior NJ12, NJ6, NJ11, NJ7 and NJ13 utilized in further research work.
