Abstract:
In this study, carried out in 1988, 450 almond
trees (Amygdalus communis L.) were examined
to select the important quality fruit types in
natural almond population grown around the
Apa Dam Lake in Cumra, Konya, Turkey, and
of them 12 types were selected with regard to
fruit characteristics.
All selected types were
seen to have the characteristics of late flowering.
The average inshell fruit weights were between
3.37 g and 5.24 g.
The kernel weights were 0.64
and 1.00 g and the ration kernel were 14.29% and
