Citrus industry of Pakistan has been monopolized by a single cultivar Kinnow mandarin. Efforts are being made to diversify the citrus industry by induction of some suitable species like sweet orange, being the best choice after Kinnow mandarin. In the present studies 11 exotic sweet orange cultivars (Salustiana, Emby Gold, Lane Navel, Glane Navel, Hamlin, Tarocco-N, Casa Garande, Hinkley, Marr's Early, Kozan & Musambi) were evaluated at Citrus Research Institute Sargodha (CRIS) Pakistan, for prospective cultivation in Punjab province. The studies comprised of plant growth (plant height, plant spread, stem girth) and development (fruit size, per fruit weight, number of fruits per plant, number of seeds per fruit) and physiochemical properties [juice percentage, total soluble solids (TSS), acidity, TTS/acid ratio, peel thickness, peel weight, rag weight] of the fruits.
