Abstract

Strawberry is an important crop of temperate horticulture in India. There are several genotypes have beendeveloped for getting qualitative and quantitative attributes in production of strawberry. Less area intemperate region enhances the introduction of new strains. Current study was undertaken at the Horticulturalfarm, and laboratory, School of Agriculture, Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, Punjab, in 2020-21.The biochemical and quantitative attributes of strawberry genotypes were analysed in 10 genotypes viz.,Sweet Charlie, Florida, Tioga, Camerosa, Winter Dawn, Swiss, Red coat, San Andreas, Elista and Robinsonunder sub-tropical climatic conditions of Punjab. Experiment was laid down in a Randomized Block Design(RBD) with three replications. Results revealed that among all the genotypes, cv. Winter Dawn had thehigher yield of heaviest fruit, cv. Tioga had the highest total soluble solid (TSS), ascorbic acid and totalsugar whereas, cv. Sweet Charlie contained minimum acidity and cv. Florida hold maximum juice content.The finding can be helpful for grower to achieve consumers demand and researchers in crop improvement.
