Abstract:
Morus spp. is a fast growing multipurpose tree. It has more potential in the fodder contribution to livestock. Owing to its importance, the performance of twenty one genetic resources were analyzed for growth attributes and leaf attributes. The growth attributes include basal diameter, height, number of branches and the leaf traits includes leaf length, leaf width, leaf petiole length, total number of leaves, leaf area. While considering the growth and leaf attributes, three clones viz., MI-0685, MI-0211, MI-0013, MI-0845 and MI-0807 proved its superiority at the periodic intervals of 3 MAP and 6 MAP. It can be further utilized for future improvement program mulberry genetic resources based on the growth and leaf characters.
