Varietal Assessment, Heritability Estimates and Correlation Studies in Apple Cultivars of South Kashmir

A study was conducted to assess agronomic performance and heritability estimates among different cultivars of apple in district Pulwama of Kashmir valley. Twenty cultivars aged 20 to 22 years were selected for the present study. Data were collected on physical and chemical characters of fruit and yi...
