Abstract:
The present investigation was undertaken for Evaluation of physico-chemical attributes of different genotypes of jamun (

The fruits of different genotypes were collected from Lucknow city and its adjacent areas (east, west, north and south)
. The observations on various attributes recorded revealed that the maximum fruit length, fruit width, fruit weight, pulp weight, stone weight, pulp percent, volume (ml), TSS (3.45 cm, 2.32 cm, 9.62 g, 7.60 g, 2.61 g, 90.67, 4.66 and 25.5 respectively) jamun fruit and stone colour varied from bluish purple, dark purple, black, purple, reddish purple, reddish black and brownish white, whitish purple and white respectively.
