Abstract
Both in open-pollinated and cross-pollinated strains of mulberry leaf area is directly related with leaf weight. But other characters, namely, green weight, dry weight and thickness of leaf are inversely related with stomatal frequency both in cases of open- as well as cross-pollinated mulberry strains.
