Mango (Mangifera indica L.) 

I. Subject 

These test guidelines shall apply to all varieties of Mango (Mangifera indica L.) 

II. 

Material required 

1. The Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers’ Rights Authority (PPV & FRA) shall decide 

on the quantity and quality of the plant material required for testing the variety and when 

and where it is to be delivered for registration under the Protection of Plant Varieties and 

Farmers’ Rights (PPV & FRA) Act, 2001. Applicants submitting such plant material from 

a country other than India shall make sure that all customs and quarantine requirements 

stipulated under relevant national legislations and regulations are complied with. 

2. The material is to be supplied in the form 7 grafts for each location. 

3. The plant material supplied should be visibly healthy, not lacking in vigour, nor affected by 

any important pest or disease. 

4. The plant material should not have undergone any treatment, which would affect the 

expression of the characteristics of the variety, unless the competent authorities allow 

or request such treatment. If it has been treated, full details of the treatment must be given. 

III. Conduct of tests 

1. The minimum duration of the DUS tests shall normally be at least two fruiting season in 

different years. Tests shall be conducted at least at two places. 

2. The tests should be carried out under conditions ensuring satisfactory growth for the 

expression of the relevant characteristics of the variety and for the conduct of 

the examination. In particular, it is essential that the trees produce a satisfactory crop of 

fruit in each of the two growing cycles. 

3. Test design 

The design of the tests should be such that plants or parts of plants may be removed for 

measurement or counting without prejudice to the observations which must be made up to 

the end of the growing cycle. 

PPV & FR Authority. GOI. New Delhi 17

IV. Methods and observations 

The characteristics described in the Table of characteristics (see section VII) shall be used 

for the testing varieties and hybrid for their DUS. 

1. For the assessment of Distinctiveness and Stability observation shall be made on 5 plants or 

parts taken from each of 5 plants. In the case of parts of plants, the number to be taken from 

each of the plants should be 2. 

2. Mature leaves in the middle third of the youngest shoots not showing signs of active growth 

should be selected for the observations on the leaf. 

3. Observations on the inflorescences should be made at the time of full flowering on terminal 

panicles of typical shoots from the exposed regions of the tree. 

4. Observations on the mature fruit should be recorded when fruit is ready for harvesting. At 

this stage flesh is still quite firm and has not become juicy but has started colouring around 

the stone. 

5. The ripe fruit is the fruit at the stage ready for consumption. This stage is reached when the 

flesh is juicy and has become coloured from the stone to the skin. 

V. Grouping of varieties 

1. The candidate varieties for DUS testing shall be divided into groups to facilitate the assessment 

of Distinctiveness. Characteristics, which are known from experience not to vary, or to vary 

only slightly within a variety and which in their various states are fairly evenly distributed 

across all varieties in the collection are suitable for grouping purpose. 

2. Grouping characteristics are those in which the documented states of expression, even where 

produced at different locations, can be used, either individually or in combination with other 

such characteristics: (a) to select varieties of common knowledge that can be excluded from 

the growing trial used for examination of distinctiveness; and (b) to organize the growing 

trial so that similar varieties are grouped together. 

The following characteristics are to be used for grouping mango varieties: 

a. Mature fruit: ratio of length/width (Characteristic 1) 

b. Mature fruit: shape of ventral shoulder (Characteristic 29) 

c. Mature fruit: Presence of sinus (Characteristic 33) 

18 

PPV & FR Authority. GOI. New Delhi

d. Seed: Embryony (Characteristic 50) 

e. Time of fruit maturity (Characteristic 51) 

VI. Characteristics and symbols 

1. To assess Distinctiveness, Uniformity and Stability, the characteristics and their states as 

given in the Table of characteristics (Section VII) shall be used. 

2. Notes (1 to 9) shall be given for each state of expression for different characteristics for the 

purpose of electronic data processing. 

3. Legend 

(*) Characteristics that shall be observed during every growing season on all varieties and shall 

always be included in the description of the variety, except when the state of expression of 

any of these characters is rendered impossible by a preceding phenological characteristic 

or by the environmental conditions of the testing region. Under such exceptional situation, 

adequate explanation shall be provided. 

(+) See Explanation on the Table of characteristics in Section VIII. It is to be noted that for 

certain characteristics. The plant parts on which observations to be taken are given in the 

explanation or figure(s) for clarity and not the colour variation. 

4. A code number in the sixth column of Table of characteristics indicates the optimum stage 

for the observation of each characteristic during the growth and development of plant. The 

relevant growth stages corresponding to these code numbers are described below: 

a) Observations on the leaf which should be made on mature leaves in the middle third of 

the youngest shoots not showing signs of active growth. 

b) Inflorescences should be selected from terminal panicles of typical shoots from 

the exposed regions of the tree. Observations should be made at the time of full 

flowering. 

c) The mature fruit is the fruit at the stage ready for harvesting. This stage is reached 

when the flesh is still quite firm and has not become juicy but has started colouring 

around the stone. 

d) The ripe fruit is the fruit at the stage ready for consumption. This stage is reached when 

the flesh is juicy and has become coloured from the stone to the skin. 

e) Observations on the lenticels and the speckling of the skin should be made on the 

lateral side of the fruit.
