Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingWhat should a breeding trial do when a mango quality sample is too small to support ranking?
Keep the observations as preliminary and state how much fruit was available. Avoid giving a lightly sampled selection the same confidence as one assessed across multiple trees and crops. Preserve it for further evaluation if other evidence warrants the space. Missing fruit can delay a decision without requiring either premature rejection or an unsupported claim of superiority.
