Abstract:
Commercial grape cultivation in India has evolved over approximately seventy years, establishing itself as the most profitable fruit crop in the nation. India ranks as a significant producer of table grapes, yet to dominate the global market, it requires the development of indigenous grape cultivars that exhibit superior fruit quality, diverse aromas, adaptability, climate resilience, and tolerance to various biotic/abiotic stresses. Indian grape growers have leveraged their expertise to identify promising natural mutants and have engaged in clonal selection, which has been pivotal for varietal advancement.
