Abstract

The current study aims to evaluate the physico-chemical characteristics of selected banana genotypes of Nagaland. Ten banana genotypes were collected from farmer’s field and the fruits were analyzed for TSS, acidity, total sugar, reducing sugar, TSS/Acid ratio, crude protein and total carotenoids. All the analysis was done in randomized block design with three replication. In order to obtain suitable interpretation the generated data was subjected to statistical analysis such as One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) at 0.05%. The experimental result revealed wide variation in the physico-chemical attributes of the selected genotypes. The maximum total soluble solids, acidity, total sugar and reducing sugar were found in Bhootmanohar, Chinichampa, Grand Naine and Meiteihei banana respectively. Highest TSS/Acid ratio, crude protein and total carotene were obtained in Bhootmanohar, Grand Naine and Bharatmani respectively. The cluster analysis of the mean of different physico-chemical characteristics revealed two major clusters and one out group.
