Other claims from this paper (11)

Association Midge incidence varied significantly among mango genotypes (F29, 58 = 25.88).
Observation Neelgoa had the lowest midge incidence of the tested mango genotypes (16.15%).
Observation Neeleshan had midge incidence of 26.1% among the tested mango genotypes.
Observation Alphanso had high midge incidence (86.27%).
Observation Totapuri had high midge incidence (86.42%).
Observation H-39 had high midge incidence (87.39%).
Observation Amrapali had high midge incidence (88.69%).
Observation Lalsundari had high midge incidence (89.48%).
Intervention effect Midge control increased fruit number per panicle in Amrapali (3.1-4.20/ panicle treated versus 2.80-4.00/ panicle untreated), a difference that was significant.
Intervention effect Midge control increased fruit weight in Amrapali (1.23-1.50 kg/panicle treated).
Recommendation Three to four fruits per bunch in Amrapali give standard yield.
