Abstract
Amla or Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis Gaertn. Syn. Phyllanthus emblica L.), belongs to the ancestors Euphorbiaceae and is an important
aboriginal fruit crops of Indian subcontinent. Fourteen years old trees of seven cultivars viz., NA-10 (Balwant), NA-5 (Krishna), NA-4 (Kanchan), Local
Variety (NeAPSU1), Chakaiya, Local Variety (NeAPSU2) and Local Variety (NeAPSU3) were included for the study. Reproductive behaviour studies include
all vegetative parameters, floral biology and fruiting pattern. This experiment work includes flowering Inflorescence type & its colour, budding & blooming,
anthesis & its dehiscence. The duration of blooming also varied with the cultivar. Blooming aeon lasted for 36 (cv. Chakaiya) to 48 days (cv. Krishna). The
beggarly best amounts of Male flowers were empiric in the cultivar Balwant and the least amount was empiric in the NeAPSU3. The best amounts of female
flowers were empiric in cultivar Kanchan and atomic was empiric in cultivar Balwant. Sex ratio (male: female) was begin to alter from 77:1 (cv. NeAPSU1)
to 101:1 (cv. Balwant).
