Abstract

This study was conducted with the aim to evaluate the characteristics of Chokanan mango at harvest. The Chokanan fruits were harvested from selected trees in commercial mango plot at Sintok MARDI Research Station Kedah Malaysia. Data on the fruit characteristics such as weight length (L) width (W) thickness (T) and total soluble solid (TSS Brix) were measured and recorded for 13 weeks. The results revealed high significant differences (p 0.80) was found in the weight and size L W and T of the fruits. However the weight and size of Chokanan were inversely correlated with TSS. The coefficient of variation (cv) differed among the harvested trees with the highest were recorded on weight and size of fruits (cv 9.5 and 11.4 respectively). Finally the possible causes of variability of Chokanan fruits were reported and discussed.
