this research was conducted to study some vegetative and reproductive traits as well as qualitative andquantitative characteristics and their correlation in 80 almond genotypes. qualitative traits were studiedaccording to gulcan descriptor. quantitative traits were analyzed as completely randomized design(crd), with 12 replications. the results showed that genotypes had significant difference i...

this study was carried out to investigate the important characteristics in some cultivars/genotypes of persianwalnut (juglans regia l.), black walnut (j. nigra l.), and walnut inter-specific hybrids: paradox (j. hindsii × j.regia) and royal (j. hindsii × j. nigra) in kamalshahr research station in karaj in 2011-2012. in the study,vegetative vigor was evaluated based on trunk cross-sectional are...

abstract almond is an important nut tree which is cultivated in many mediterranean countries. this study was carried out to study some vegetative and reproductive traits as well as qualitative and quantitative characteristics and their correlation in some self-compatible and self-incompatible genotypes obtained from crossing between touno (male parent) and shahrood 12 (female parent). quantitat...

to evaluate the morphological diversity of some almond cultivars and genotypes, an experiment was carried out on 55 iranian and foreign genotypes. twenty-nine quantitative and qualitative characteristics of nuts and kernels as well as 4 phenotypic characteristics of almond trees were evaluated. analysis of variance and means comparisons indicated that all the characteristics of the examined cul...

for a comparison and grouping of 72 almond cultivars and genotypes, 30 traits including; 12 phenological and vegetative characters plus 18 traits related to nut and kernel were assessed, according to almond universal descriptor. the results revealed that some such traits as growth habit, flower color, nut weight, shell hardness and kernel taste carried high coefficients of variation. simple cor...

 In 2007 and 2008, the influence of pollen source on the shell and kernel traits of resulting seeds and on fruit set was examined to evaluate the potential for Xenia or Metaxenia in Persian walnut. Pistillate flowers of ‘Jamal’, ‘Chandler’, ‘Hartley’ and ‘Pedro’ were crossed with the pollen of ‘Serr’, ‘Z60’ and ‘Damavand’. The pistillate flowers on each female parent were covered about one week...

The black walnut (Juglans nigra L.) is an underutilized fruit in the mid-hills of Nepal. However, the physico-chemical properties of Nepalese black walnut are almost unavailable in the literature. Four walnut growing districts namely Baitadi, Dadeldhura, Jumla and East Rukum selected and the black walnut collected at commercial maturity from the local markets. The physical properties w...
