STUDY ON PHYSICO-CHERNICAL PARAMETERS OF SWEET ORANGE (CITRUS SINENSIS •SBECK) CIATIVARS UNDER SUB ARID ZONE OF MAHARASHTRA.S. N.Gohil, D. D. Jagtap, R.V. Patil, V. B. Jadhav and S.V. BulbuleAbstract Under the study the general performance of all the cultivars i.e. Blood Red Malta, Blood Red Mutation, Hamlin, Jaffa, Kodur Sathgudi, Mosambi, Valencia, Valencia Late was good.
