Abstract

Physico chemical characters of the fruits of Nagpur mandarin located at different sides of trees were studied during 1997–98. The studies revealed that, fruits located inside the tree contain less TSS and acid whereas, those exposed in the sun had more total soluble solids, ascorbic acid and rapid colour development resulting in early ripening.
