Abstract: The investigation was carried out to identify the morphological parameters of the superior seedling progenies of mango in major mango growing parts of Bidar district, Karnataka. Among the 61 seedling selections selected for the investigation, the fruit yield was highest in ‘CMS-67' (238 kg/tree) and 'GMS-02' in new and old plant category respectively. The maximum fruit weight (862.00 g), fruit width (117.62 mm), fruit volume (880.00 g/cc), pulp weight (647.72 g) and peel weight (127.30 g) was found in ‘CMS-05'. The maximum fruit width was recorded in ‘CMS-60'. The highest specific gravity (1.02 g/ cc) of fruit was noticed in 'CMS-47'. The highest pulp percentage (81.77 %) with the lowest peel percentage (7.51 %) was recorded 'GMS-04'. The lowest peel content (11.31g) was observed in 'CMS-46'. The lowest stone weight (15.45 g) was noticed in 'GMS-01', the lowest stone percentage and the maximum pulp to stone ratio (17.24) was recorded in 'CMS-45'. The minimum non-edible part (27.40 g) was recorded in 'CMS-46'. The lowest non-edible percentage (18.23 %), lowest fruit to pulp ratio (1.22), highest pulp to peel ratio (10.89) and edible to non-edible ratio (4.49) was noticed in 'GMS-04'. The thicker peel (2.98 mm) was noticed in 'CMS-15' and 'CMS-05'.
