Abstract: Variation among different morphometric characters were studied among fifteen selected clones of Morus alba. These fifteen clones were selected out of the originally twenty seven clones based on their growth performance over the years in a clonal evaluation trial. The significant differences were found among clones with respect to various morphometric traits viz, basal diameter, number of primary branches, crown spread, lamina width, lamina length, petiole length, leaf area and green leaf yield clones Tr10, S146, S36, S799 and Mandaley showed higher values. Hence, these clones can be further used for site interaction trials etc and therefore recommending the end users in a particular area.
