The experiment, designed with the objective of estimating the total sugars, reducing sugars, non-reducing sugars, total phenols, crude fibre, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc in dried fruit samples of 8 genotypes, 28 hybrids and 2 standard hybrid checks to develop hybrids that can impart resistance against insect pest as well as is nutritionally beneficial for humans, was conducted in randomized block design at All India Coordinated Research Project on Vegetable Crops, Department of Horticulture, Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth, Rahuri during June, 2022 to December, 2023. The biochemical analysis of fruits and leaves of kharif and summer trial was carried out separately in Ph.D. laboratory, Department of Horticulture, MPKV, Rahuri. All the biochemical parameters were found to vary significantly among all the genotypes, hybrids and standard hybrid checks. Among parents/genotypes, P5 (RHRBR-54) was rated as the best genotype and P5 x P6 (RHRBR-54 x RHRBR-74), P6 x P7 (RHRBR-74 x RHRBR-34) and P5 x P8 (RHRBR-54 x RHRBR-2) 1 were found as the best cross combinations during both the seasons. Identified parental lines can be used for development of superior variety, whereas superior cross combinations can be exploited as a commercial hybrid.
