DNA isolated by CT AB method was used for amplification of 48 markers by using 7 RAPD primers (OPA 04, OPB 03, OPB 06, OPB 08, OPC 02, OPC 08, and OPC 05). All 48 polymorphic fragments were used to generate the similarity matrix and construct a dendrogram. In this matrix highest genetic similarity of 100% was observed between the 'DHS-1' and 'DHS-2', while the least (23%) was between 'PKM-3' and 'Culcutta Round'. UPGMA (unweighted pair group method with arithmetical averages) cluster analysis using Jaccard's coefficient of similarity of 31 genotypes showed medium to high diversity, which are distributed between the ranges of 35-100%. Maximum genetic similarity distance between 'Oval' and 'Murabba' (91 %), whereas minimum genetic similarity distance was 35% between 'PKM-5' and 'Mohangootee'. The clustering revealed that all round and oval shape fruit bearing genotypes are grouped together and oblong shape fruit bearing genotypes are grouped together. The oblong shape fruit bearing genotypes are narrowly associated with the round and oval-shaped fruit bearing genotypes, which are 'PKM-4', 'Culcutta Round', 'PKM-3' and 'Mohangootee'. All these genotypes are having oblong-shaped fruit, except 'Culcutta Round', whereas 'PKM-5' has been made distinctive cluster in the dendrogram because of its distinctive oblong-shaped fruit, which is closely associated with 'PKM-4', 'PKM-3' and 'Mohangootee'.

An experiment was carried out during 2019-2020 to standardize the protocol for preparation of flavoured candy from pseudostem core of banana cv. Rajapuri. Candies were prepared and subjected for organoleptic evaluation by semi-trained panel to analyse the quality attributes like colour and appearance, taste, texture and overall acceptability using 9 point hedonic scale and they are evaluated for microbial load by serial dilution technique during storage period of 3 months under ambient conditions. The experiment was carried out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with nine treatments and three replications. Among various treatments, the candy prepared by blanching for 2.5 minutes and steeping in 40-60 o Brix sugar syrup with 1 per cent citric acid and 5 per cent pineapple juice as a natural flavor (T4) obtained highest mean organoleptic score with respect to colour and appearance (8.16), taste and flavour (8.25), texture (8.31) and overall acceptability (8.24). Total bacterial population was recorded minimum (0.46 x 10 5 cfu/g) in T5 (Blanching for 2.5 min. + steeping in 40-60 o Brix syrup + 1% citric acid + 10% Pineapple juice) and total fungal count was recorded minimum (0.51 x 10 3 cfu/g) in T9 (Blanching for 5 min. + 40-60 o Brix syrup + 1% citric acid + 10% Pineapple juice) after the storage period of 90 days at ambient condition.

Consumers prefer fruits that look good, firm and offer good flavour and nutritive value. Producers and handlers are first concerned with appearance and textural quality along with long post harvest life. Present study was undertaken at ICAR-AICRP on Fruits, KRC. College of Horticulture, Arabhavi to study the organoleptic qualities of banana genotypes during 2018-19. Five diploid (AA & AB) and Eleven triploid (AAA) banana genotypes were used for the evaluation. The analyzed results for overall acceptability were in higher preference level in Kadali (8.18) which was on par with Pisang Lillin (7.02) while minimum was noticed in Namarai (6.26) among AA group. In AB group, significantly maximum values were observed in Ney Poovan (9.00) which was on par with Mitli (8.71) while, minimum value was noticed in Kodappanilla (4.99).

Blending of two or more fruit juices for the preparation of Squash appears to be a convenient and economical alternative for utilization of Karonda. Owing to such potential, an experiment was carried out during 2019-2020 in the Department of Post-harvest Technology, Kittur Rani Channamma College of Horticulture, Arabhavi (UHS, Bagalkot), Karnataka. The karonda blended squash with guava, pineapple and red fleshed guava in different proportions were prepared and evaluated for organoleptic traits. Among various blended treatments, the combination of karonda and red fleshed guava (T10) in ratio of (50:50) obtained highest mean organoleptic score with respect to colour and appearance (8.30), Mouthfeel (8.09), flavour (7.90), taste (8.07) and overall acceptability (7.86) followed by combination of Karonda and pineapple (T3) in the ratio ...

College of Horticulture, Arabhavi to study the evaluation of diploid banana genotypes under Northern dry zone of Karnataka during 2018-19. The results revealed that, among AA group, Namarai has taken minimum days to shooting (247.37 days) and in AB group, Kunnan has taken minimum days to shooting (256.14 days). Maximum bunch weight and yield was recorded in Kadali (11.17 kg/plant & 34.46 t/ha) respectively which was on par with Anaikomban (10.25 kg/plant & 31.63 t/ha) among AA group. While in AB group, Ney Poovan had recorded highest bunch weight and yield (16.47 kg/plant & 50.82 t/ha). Whereas lowest bunch weight and yield was noticed in Namarai (6.83 kg/plant & 21.08 t/ha) in AA group, Aktoman (8.13 kg/plant & 25.09 t/ha) in AB group.

Area under this crop is increasing due to its wider adaptability to varied agro-climatic conditions and higher productivity. The cluster analysis with Jaccard’s Co-efficient showed a high to moderate level of genetic diversity in sapota. The two major clusters could be identified by UPGMA based on Jaccard’s Co-efficient of similarity. The cluster one contained 31 genotypes and it again formed into two sub groups. Cluster two contained 1 genotype (PKM - 5). The dendrogram indicated that the round and oval (Sub cluster I) shape fruit bearing genotypes and oblong (cluster II) shape fruit bearing genotypes were separate groups. The cluster analysis for 19 cultivars clearly indicated that the genetic diversity between species is moderate, based on morphological characters and fruit shape. Again 19 cultivars clustered in to two main clusters, one cluster having all round and oval shape fruit and another having oblong shape ...

Grand Naine” was carried at ICAR- AICRP on Fruits, Kittur Rani Channamma College of Horticulture, Arabhavi, Belagavi district, Karnataka during the year 2019-2020. The experiment was laid out in Split-plot design with two main treatments and six sub treatments. Among the different treatments tested, the bunch spray with 2 per cent sulphate of potash and 0.5 per cent of Arka banana special mixture along with bunch covering (B2S6) significantly improved bunch weight (22.15 kg), bunch length (98.10 cm), bunch width (50.80 cm) and finger characteristics like weight (163.06 g), length, girth (15.69 cm), peel (36.91 g), pulp weight (127.16 g) and peel to pulp ratio (3.44) followed by bunch spray with 2 per cent sulphate of potash and 0.5 per cent of Arka banana special mixture without bunch covering (B1S6) over control.

It belongs to the family Sapotaceae. It is also called by other names, such as chikku, sapota plum, sapodilla or prickly pear. In fruits, peel can also be eaten along with pulp since it is rich in nutritive value than the pulp alone (Gupta et al., 1981). Latex from sapota tree is used in the manufacture of chewing gum in Tropical America. The pulp of sapota when ripe is soft, granular and very sweet. Sapota is an energy rich fruit with high total soluble solids (20-22%) and good source of digestible sugar, and has an appreciable amount of protein, fat, fiber and minerals like calcium, phosphorous, iron (Shanmugavelu and Srinivasan, 1973). In India sapota is commercially grown in the Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Andra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and West Bengal states. Karnataka is the leading producer of sapota, which is mainly distributed in districts of Bagalkot,
