An experiment was carried out in sub tropical to wet temperature of Himachal Pradesh, Jammu Kashmir and Uttarakhand (760 1950m amsl, 30 10' 159 to 33 04 693" N and 74 44 076" to 78 25 681" E). Out of 170 pre selected genotypes, 37 promising genotypes were observed to be horticulturally desirable for berry weight. TSS and colour variation in berry weight extended from maximum of 0.92g to a minimum of 0.37g. Highest value (18047 B) for TSS in pepari2 and lowest (9.70B) in was observed in Dedhgharat 7 (HP) while acidity percent ranged between 1.09% and 1.72%. Berry length was between 7.8 to 14.37 mm berry breadths 10.03 to 15.85mm. The reducing sugar varied is between 2.2% and 4.9% non reducing ugar were 5.9% to 11.5%mand the ascorbic acid cotent ranged from 3.0 to 5.1mg 100g. However genotypes, sarali 3 (HP) Sabali 4 (UK) and Kumarhatti 1 (HP) apperared overall promissing based on their horticilurrally desirable traits, vi heavy berry weight and high TSS respectively. Three strain were also observed in uttarkhand.
