Abstract: The mineral composition of 50 different selected jackfruit genotypes was estimated in college of horticulture, Bengaluru in 2018. The minerals such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, copper, iron, manganese and zinc were estimated using standard procedures. The potassium content was maximum in MDS-1 (332.33 mg 100 g-1) and minimum in HGJ-1 (231.43 mg 100 g-1). The calcium content was maximum in MDS-1 (47.95 mg 100 g-1) and minimum in MYK-1 (28.04 mg 100 g-1). The magnesium content varied from 12.83 mg 100 g-1 in HGN-1 to 22.03 mg 100 g-1 in HSK-21. The copper content ranged from 0.21 mg 100 g-1 in MAM-1 to 0.45 mg 100 g-1 in BKV-1. The iron content varied from 2.28 mg 100 g-1in MCR-1 to 4.23 mg 100 g-1 in MAK-1. The manganese content ranged from 0.44 mg 100 g-1 in MAM-1 to 0.92 mg 100 g-1 in BKV-1. The zinc content ranged from0.32 mg 100 g-1 in MAM-2 to 1.62 mg 100 g-1 in HGP-1.
