Abstract: An investigation was made on 18 guava cultivars viz., BSPG-1, BSPG-2, BSPG-3, BSPG-4, BSPG-5, BSPG-6, BSPG-7, BSPG-8, BSPG-9, RJMG-1, RJMG-2, RJMG-3, RJMG-4, RJMG-5, RJMG-6, RJMG-7, RJMG-8 and RJMG-9 under Chhattisgarh plains. Different guava genotypes performed significantly different. The tree height was recorded maximum (4.43 m) in RJMG-9, trunk girth recorded maximum (55.44 cm) in BSPG-8. Plant spread in North-South direction was found maximum (7.78 m) in RJMG-3, while, plant spread in East-West direction was observed maximum (7.84 m) in RJMG-4. Maximum number of fruits per tree (121) was observed in genotype RJMG-4 and highest yield per tree (21.32 kg) was recorded in genotype RJMG-1 were found to be suitable for further improvement.
