Abstract
A comparative study was made of yield attributes and nut characters of the progenies of Chowghat Dwarf Orange, selected for seedling vigour from four different populations obtained by four different methods, viz. (1) unemasculated and open-pollinated, (2) unemasculated and selfed, (3) emasculated and hybridized with WCT, (4) emasculated and open-pollinated. Data indicate that progenies from population (3) gave the highest cumulative yield as well as annual yield, closely followed by those from population (2) although this relationship was not maintained for the other yield attributes studied. The mean copra outturn as well as oil content was maximum in progenies from population (2) followed by those from (3).
