The fig (Ficus carica L.) is an underutilized fruit tree with significant medicinal and nutritional value. This study presents the morphological characterization of 42 fig genotypes surveyed from the three districts of Jammu and Kashmir, based on quantitative and qualitative traits evaluated through IPGRI and CIHEAM (2003) descriptors to assess diversity and conservation potential. The study revealed substantial morphological diversity among local fig germplasm with tree height ranging from 2.30 to 5.76 m with maximum in genotype SKJFRa (Sel-14) at 5.76 m, trunk girth from 32.83 to 56.47 cm with the largest in SKJFP (Sel-40) at 56.47 cm, and internodal length from 2.35 to 5.13 cm with the longest in SKJFRa (Sel-14) at 5.13 cm. Tree spread in N-S dimensions ranged from 1.76 to 4.34 m, with the maximum in SKJFRa (Sel-17) at 4.34 m and E-W dimensions from 2.41 to 4.87 m, with the maximum in SKJFRa (Sel-10) at 4.87 m. Qualitative analysis revealed conical terminal buds (92.85%) and pyriform fruits (40.85%) as predominant. Most genotypes (71.42%) showed no abnormal fruit formation, and apical dominance was absent in most genotypes (85.71%). Additionally, ostiole size was predominantly medium, present in 47.61% of the studied genotypes. Ward cluster analysis using Euclidean distance classified the genotypes into five major groups. These findings highlight the region's rich fig diversity, underscoring its value for breeding programs and conservation. The study establishes baseline data for sustainable utilization of this ecologically and economically significant species in Himalayan agroecosystems, emphasizing the need for germplasm documentation and targeted cultivation strategies.
