Abstract: Mango has enormous varietal diversity and there are about 1600 varieties in the world. It has a rich intra-specific diversity, with about 1600 and 1000 cultivars of mango present globally and India, respectively. The major mango growing states in India are Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Karnataka and Gujarat. Several studies have been made on characterization of intra-varietal variability of many different cultivars of mango. However, hybrid development of varieties with attractive traits like colour, size, taste, etc. in mango is limited. The maximum number of initial fruit set in cross combination of Amrapali x Vanraj (40) was recorded which was at par with Amrapali x Hussan-e-ara (39). The maximum number of matured fruit was observed in cross combination of Zardalu x Vanraj (15). Such studies in commercial cultivars of mango will certainly be helpful in understanding its floral biology and compatibility of different coloured mango cultivars.
