| Abstract | ||
| This investigation was carried out in a private orchard located at the entrance to Wadi Nugra Blana-region, Aswan Governorate, during two consecutive seasons of 2019 and 2020. The study aimed to evaluate the morphology, yield, and fruit quality of five foreign mango cultivars (Nam Doc Mai, Naomi, Osteen, R2E2, and Shelly) under Aswan conditions. All mango cultivars were 8 years old at the start of the experiment. They were planted 2 by 3 meters apart. Each cultivar was represented by five trees (i.e., five replicates). The trees of each mango cultivar were uniform in vigour. The obtained results showed that vegetative growth, yield, and physical and chemical characteristics of the fruit varied between the studied mango cultivars. On the basis of yield and fruit quality attributes, it could be suggested to cultivate R2E2, Naomi, and Shelly cultivars successfully under Aswan conditions. | ||
