| Descripció: | Some fruit characteristics of 46 mango (Mangifera indica) cultivars in Alajuela, Costa Rica were evaluated, considering both qualitatively (two) and quantitatively (eight) variables. There were statistically significant differences between cultivars for seven quantitative variables. Data show a wide variability with respect to fruit characteristics: length (74.50-146.20 mm), width (59.98-116.28 mm), thickness (58.08-104.80 mm), length/width ratio (0.81-2.02), length/thickness ratio (0.90-2.01), width/thickness ratio (0.97-1.21), relative volume (262.33-1287.05 cm3), and percentage of total soluble solids (12.0-20.0 °Brix). This information is useful for mango growers to choose the best cultivar for their particular market purposes. |
