Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingShould mango rootstock trials measure fruit quality as well as growth?
Yes, a useful comparison should follow the crop through harvest and ripening rather than stopping at canopy measurements. Record marketable fruit, maturity at picking, and the relevant quality outcomes with consistent sampling. This is an evaluation priority, not an assumption that every rootstock changes every quality trait. Keep handling identical among treatments so a transport or ripening difference is not incorrectly attributed to the rootstock.
