Abstract

Identify of some Iranian apricot with fruit morphological markers (Fruit characteristics)

Author(s): Reza Kamrani

In this research thirty seven fruit morphological characters were studied in twenty apricot genotypes . To identify of any cultivars , international descriptor was used[24]. Morphological characters as follows : Fruit : Size , Shape in lateral view , Shape in ventral view , Height ,Lateral width , Ventral width , Ratio height/ventral width , Ratio lateral width/ventral width ,Symmetry in ventral view , Suture depth of stalk cavity , Shape of apex , Present of macro , Surface , Pubescence , Glossiness , Ground color , Relative area of over color , Hue of over color , Intensity of over color , Pattern of over color , Color of flesh , Texture of flesh , Firmness of flesh , Ratio weight of fruit /weight of stone , Adherence of stone to flesh , Weight , Volume , PH , Pressure tester ,Carbohydrate , Time of beginning flowering , Time of beginning of fruit ripening .Kernel : Shape in lateral view , Bitterness , Weight , Volume .Cultivars names as follows : BN-KB 21 , BN-HS 524 , BNRE527 , Jahangiri , Shahrood 49 , Shahrood 15 , Shahrood 48 , BN-KB 29 , BN-KB 576 , Shahrood 48 A , BNKB 31 , Azghandi , BN-NO 512 , BN – KB 7 , Shahrood 31 , BN- SH 723 , Royal , Shahrood 18 , BN-KB 40 , BNKB 24 . As a result : The differences between fruit morphological characters in almost cultivars were significant and can be used to distinguish of this cultivars .
