Four guava varieties viz. Kanchannagar, Kazipiara, Mukundapuri and Swarupkathi were evaluated at Agricultural Research Station, Khagrachai during the growing period of 1990-1991 on three different hill elevations expressed as hill foot, mid hill and hill top. Guava varieties showed significant influence on fruit characteristics. Maximum fruit length and diameter were observed in Kazipiara. Kazipiara produced maximum mesocarp and endocarp thickness while Swarupkathi produced the minimum. Total soluble solid content was found to be highest in Kanchannagar (10.10 percent). Plant on hill foot showed superior fruit characters over mid hill and hill top. The interaction effect of varieties and hill elevation was observed to be significant among the fruit characteristics. The fruit size of Kazipiara was greater than all other varieties in any positions of hill.
