Tree morphological characteristics of fruit species
| Species . | Crown shape . | Leaf orientation . | Leaf shape . | Stems and branches . |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mango | Round, symmetrical, dense, coarse texture | Inclined to horizontal | Lanceolate, oblong | Sympodially branched, branching from 60 to 80 cm above ground |
| Litchi | Round dome-shaped, dense, coarse to uniform texture | Alternate, glossy textured, oblique leaves | Lanceolate, oblong, elliptical (ovate) | Low-hanging and spreading, 3–4 lateral shoots 50–60 cm above ground |
| Guava | Oval, very less dense, medium texture | Opposite, rough textured, droop outside | Obovate, concave | Wide spreading branches and downy twigs |
| Jackfruit | Round, symmetrical, dense, coarse texture | Inclined to vertical | Oval at matured stage and lobed at young stage | Straight trunk, branching out from the base at an angle of 32–88° |
