Abstract

A study was conducted on variability in fruiting potentiality in aonla (Emblica officinalis Gaertn).The maximum
tiuit-retention was recorded under open pollination followed by sibbing and geitonogamy, whereas bagging resulted in
no-fruit retention. Improvement in fruit retention under sibbing and open pollination compared with the geitonogamy
might be due to the effect of foreign pollen grains having high pollination stimulus. Poor-fruit retention under
geitonogamy and bagging indicated the possibility of self-incompatility in all the aonla cultivars/genotypes.
