extended abstractbackground and objectives: loquats have formed different ecological types during their cultivation and adaptation in different parts of the world. the first step in the breeding operation is the identifying of the spread center accompanied the studying of the variation between genotypes. in this research, 20 loquat genotypes were evaluated using fruit morphological markers to i...

peach genotypes showing notable fruit and tree traits were selected in ardabil and east azarbaijan provinces of iran. genotypes were grafted on seed rootstocks and cultured with 4×4 m spacing. traits such as tree growth habit, flowering, maturity, morphological and qualitative fruit characteristics were described in 15 peach genotypes using ibpgr peach descriptors during the 2005-2007 seasons. ...

increasing product marketability and introduction of new cultivars for fresh consumption of apple is the world's most important breeding objectives. in this study, the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the genotypes from cross between red spur and golab-e-kohanz apple cultivars were evaluated. a total of 19 traits including fruit attributes (firmness, fruit weight,...) and th...

selection of superior chance seedling genotypes is an important task in pear breeding programs. this research was carried out in order to explore and evaluate some of european pear (pyrus communis l.) chance seedling genotypes that are primarily used as rootstock for the asian pear (pyrus serotina rehd.) in tarbiat modares university (tmu) asian pear collection orchard. after four years visual ...

this study performed to evaluate genetic diversity of some wild and domesticated (unknown foreign cultivars) blackberries in sanru collection based on morphological traits. results showed high diversity for flowering, ripening time and fruit juice. wild genotypes showed significant differences in leaf, flower, thorn number, fruits and seed fresh weight compared to domesticated cultivars. based ...

background and objectives:  hawthorn is a forest fruit tree which is grown in the temperate regions around the world. this plant is known as the most traditional herbal remedy for heart failure and cardiovascular disease in worldwide. this study has been conducted to investigate the genetic variability and classify hawthorn genotypes based on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of leaf...

abstract considering to importance and high genetic diversity of pear (pyrus communis l.) in iran, a study was conducted on the effect of genotype on fruit physicochemical properties and qualitative characteristics of six mature european pear genotypes in teheran, iran environmental conditions. in this study some physicochemical fruit properties and qualitative characteristics such as: fruit le...
