Interpretation: INDO‑18 displayed a significantly higher sugar content (TSS) while maintaining comparable acidity, resulting in an improved (S/A ≈ 35) favorable for consumer perception. The deeper red hue (higher a*) aligns with market preferences for visually attractive mangoes. 6.2 Nutritional Composition | Component | INDO‑18 | Carabao | % Difference | |-----------|---------|---------|--------------| | Vitamin C (mg 100 g⁻¹) | 45 ± 2 | 38 ± 3 | +18 % | | β‑Carotene (mg 100 g⁻¹) | 3.2 ± 0.2 | 2.4 ± 0.2 | +33 % | | Total Phenolics (GAE mg 100 g⁻¹) | 210 ± 12 | 180 ± 10 | +17 % | | DPPH Antioxidant (µmol TE g⁻¹) | 12.5 ± 0.6 | 10.3 ± 0.5 | +21 % |
The cultivar, derived from a cross between the elite Indian cultivar ‘Alphonso’ and the local variety ‘Nam Dok Mai’, was selected for its early‑season fruiting, moderate tree vigor, and tolerance to anthracnose (caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides ). Preliminary field trials indicated a promising market‑ready fruit size (average weight ≈ 250 g) and an appealing orange‑red peel colour. However, comprehensive data on its post‑harvest quality attributes remain lacking. University of Jakarta
