A study was undertaken in the rainy season (Aug.-Sep.) to identify suitable submergence tolerant mulberry varieties.Yield of leaf,chlorophyll and carotenoid contents,as well as ,photosynthesis and its related parameters were affected in the mulberry genotypes when subjected to waterlogging .out of 7 mulberry varieties (S1,S1635,K2,Jatinuni,Kolia-Kotahi,Kolitha-3 and Malda local)studied ,SI and Kolitha-3 were found to be tolerant to waterlogging with insignificant reduction in the yield of leaf,photosynthetic rate and chlorophyll content.
