Achievements:
- Half sib progenies of custard apple cv. Balanagar (135 nos.) were evaluated. The yield was observed to be maximum in Acc. No.1/14 (15.06 kg per plant) and fruit weight was observed to be maximum in the Acc. No.1/15 (104.3 g). Maximum TSS was recorded in Acc. No. 2/16 (27.5°B).
- Interspecific hybridization in Annona was carried out with Annona atemoya (Island gem, Bullock’s Heart and Pink’s mammoth) and Annona squamosa varieties (Balanagar, Raidurg, APK-1, Red Sitaphal, Mammoth, Barbados Seedlings, Washington 07005 and Washington 98797).
