Abstract

The present investigation was carried out on five genotypes of bael, namely, Kaghzi Gonda, Kanpur Local, Basti No. 1, Faizabad Local and Kaghzi Etawah. Physiological weight loss, total soluble solids and spoilage were increase while acidity was decrease of all five genotypes with the storage period. Kaghzi Gonda exhibited higher percentage of weight loss followed by Kaghzi Etawah, Kanpur Local, Faizabad Local and Basti No. 1. Kaghzi Gonda showed highest total soluble solids followed by Kaghzi Etawah, Kanpur Local, Faizabad Local and Basti No. 1. Kaghzi Etawah revealed maximum loss in acidity followed by Kaghzi Gonda. Kaghzi Gonda exhibited maximum spoilage followed by Kaghzi Etawah, Basti No. 1, Kanpur Local and Faizabad Local. Storage life of bael fruits was determined to utilized this fruit for beverage industry.
