3. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is the most important fruit crop in
India with considerable socio-economic significance. It is known
as the âKing of fruitsâ owing to the delicious quality of the fruit rich
in vitamins and minerals. Its long period of domestication is
evident from its mention in the ancient Indian scriptures. Ancient
Indians valued mango not merely for the sentiment or religious
consideration, but also they realized its importance in the
economic and cultural life of their society. Mughal
kings promoted the practice of planting the best varieties: Lakhi
Bagh (one lakh tree) planted by Akbar the Great is wellknown in
history. Ain-I-Akbari, an encyclopedia written in 1590 AD gives an
ample understanding of mango in that period. However, research
with specific objectives started by the turn of the last Century.
Mango is rich in Vit A, C, flavonoids, carotenes, glucosides,
sterols, terpenes, aromatic acids, essential oils, fatty acids and
phenolics. It is a powerfully nutritive fruit, containing most of the
INTRODUCTION
4. The improvement of mango rather any crop needs to
explore new recombinants primarily by means of exploiting the
breeding methodologies. Diversity or heterogeneity is the main
character desired for breeding either natural or manmade. It is
required to have vast genetic pool to get new combinations of
desired nature and developing new hybrids. It has been
mentioned earlier that the development of mango in the area is
result of selections from the amteur gardeners. Breeding has yet
to play its role in the development of this crop as it has not been
effectively manipulated in the distant past. Now, the scientists
have developed certain hybrids of mango. To go for such
strategies, a comprehensive knowledge of the physiology of the
reproductive parts, their breeding behavior and cytological
information of the crop is needed.
5. ⢠MANGO (Mangifera indica L.)
⢠Origin : The mango (Mangifera indica L.) originated in northeastern India,
the Indo-Myanmar border region, and in Bangladesh, where it is still found as a
wild tree bearing very small fruits. It is also known to occur in the lower
Himalayan tract, near Nepal, Bhutan and Sikkim.
⢠Chromosome number: (2n=4x=40)
Detailed classification is as follows:
⢠Division : Magnoliophyta
⢠Class : Magnoliopsida
⢠Sub-Class : Rosidae
⢠Order : Sapindales
⢠Family : Anacardiaceae
⢠Genus : Mangifera
.
CROP INTRODUCTION
6. ⢠The name Mangifera is given by âBotinusâ first time in 1658.
⢠It belongs to family âAnacardaceaeâ
⢠Indo-Burma region is believed to be the primary centre of
mango.
⢠The name Mangifera indica is given by Linnaeus in 1753.
7. The Mangifera indica germplasm is divided into 2
groups.
⢠1. Seedling races
⢠2. Horticultural races
⢠Seedling races are wild and cultivated types, which
are most common in Tropical Asia and almost all
commercial cultivars of mango are from this type.
⢠Horticultural races: these are vegetatively
propagating types. These include both Mono and
Polyembryonic types. Monoembryonic types are
predominant in India, South America, Africa and
Florida.
⢠Polyembryonic types are predominant in North
India.
Germplasm
8. ⢠Germplasm resources:
⢠India is home for Mango diversity where more
than 1000 varieties are existing, which are
widely distributed over agro-ecological regions
of India.
⢠CISH (Central Institute for Subtropical
Horticulture), Lucknow has largest collection of
mango (633 accessions), further, IIHR, IARI,
Sabour(Bihar) are also maintaining the
germplasm.

Breeding problems in Mango
12. ⢠Dwarfness
⢠Precocity
⢠Profuse and regular bearing
⢠Attractive, good sized and quality fruit
⢠Absence of physiological disorders
⢠Disease and pest resistance and improved
shelf life
⢠High Productivity
Breeding objectives
13. ⢠Floral biology: Mango inflorescence is
terminal with frequent emergence of the
multiple axillary panicles.
⢠Both perfect (2-70%) and hermaphrodite
flowers occur on the same panicle. Total
number of flowers in each panicle is 1000-
6000 depending upon the variety.
⢠Percentage of perfect flower varies from
variety to variety (0.74-Rumani, 30.6%
Dasheri, 42.9% Chausa, 69.8%Langra)
⢠Critical time of May-June and September-
October.
REPRODCUTIVE PHYSIOLOGY
14. ⢠Sex ratio and pollen abnormalities are the
main problems in pollination eg:
Occurrence of few abnormal flowers
⢠Anthesis starts early in the morning and
completes at noon. Stigma receptivity remains
for 72 h but most receptive period is for the
first 6 h. Minimum pollen germination time is
1.5 h.
⢠Initial fruit set depends upon the ratio of the
perfect to male flowers. Proportion of perfect
flowers required for optimum fruit set must not
be less than 1%.
15. ⢠Pollination:
⢠Mango is self-fertile but cross pollination
increases fruit set.
⢠The pollination is mainly entemophilous. It was
found that under natural pollination, about 40-
60% perfect flowers failed to receive any
pollen grain.
⢠Musca domestica, Melionia sps. Are reported
to be mainly involved in pollination
⢠Self incompatibility reported in âDasheriâ and
self unfruitfulness is reported in Langra,
Chausa, Bombay green cultivars.
16. ⢠Hybridization:
⢠Mango inflorescence is amenable to Hybridization.
There fore several hybrids are produced so far.
⢠In 1911 Burns and Prayag has initiated Hybridization
work in Mango in Pune.
⢠Later, hybridization work begun at Research Stations
Sabour and Kodur during early forties.
⢠Sabour has released two hybrids âMahmud baharâ
and âPrabha Shankarâ from parental combination of
Bombai X Kalapady.
⢠Later research work started in Sharanpur (UP) in 1950âs
⢠Later on several hybrids are released from IARI,IIHR,
CISH, FRS Sangareddy, FRS Periakulam, AES
Peria, FRS Vengurla.
BREEDING METHODS
17. ⢠Since all Mangifera species having same
chromosome number i.e. 40, they can be easily inter
crossable.
⢠Single day Pollination:
⢠limited no.of flowers are pollinated in a large
number of panicles.
⢠Later after crossing the panicles are bagged with
polythene bags or muslin cloths.
⢠CAGING Technique:
⢠This technique developed at IARI, New Delhi.
⢠This technique is followed in Self incompatible types.

44. Mutation
Bud mutants occur frequently and are a valuable source of variation. Albino mutant
occurrence is quite frequent in mango seedlings and in certain shoots in mature trees.
There are only two cases of somatic mutants yielding new cvs. âThe Davisâ sport of
âHadenâ (Young &
Ledin, 1954) and âRosicaâ bud mutant of Peruvian cultivar âRosado de Icaâ (Medina,
1977).
The mutants are high yielding, regular bearing and seedy. Induced mutations
by radiations were first used by Siddiqui et al. (1966). He exposed dormant buds of
Langra to gamma radiations and grafted on one-year-old seedlings.
Bud graft exposed to 3.0 kR of radiations bore heavier and larger fruits than
control. Singh and Chadha (1981) located four superior clones from orchards of
Dashehari while Singh et al. (1985) isolated high yielding clones from âLangraâ
orchards. Sharma and Majumdar (1988b) irradiated bud sticks of Dashehari with
chemical mutagens (EMS and NMU) and top worked them on to 10 years old
seedlings. The mutants showed dwarfness, changes in shape, leaf serration and TSS.
Mutations can be successfully propagated asexually. The techniques used need to be
perfected in mango to make mutation breeding more urposeful.
