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...

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...

pepper belongs to the family of solanaceae that is being used as a food flavoring, a coloring agent, a pharmaceutical ingredient and in other innovative ways. this study was carried out to evaluation of genetic diversity in pepper genotypes using 40 morphological traits on 77 genotypes in augmented design with three controls. measuring of traits of pepper genotypes were performed based on ecpgr...

in order to evaluate the effect of water stress on fruit quality and quantity of some iranian melons, the experiment was set out in a split plot design with three replicates in research filed of university of zanjan in 2014. treatments consisted arrangement of three irrigation levels (starting irrigation at 100, 66 and 33 etc) and 11 genotypes of iranian melons (ʼkhatouniʻ, ʼkaliʻ, ʼorshangʻ, ʼ...

iran is the center of origin as well as variation for pomegranate (punica granatum l.). also, iran is one of the most important countries in the world in terms of pomegranate culture and production. monitoring morphological and physiological changes which occur during fruit growth and development is an important determining in orchard management decisions. the aim of the present research was to...

to evaluate the inoculation effect of potassium releasing, phosphate solubilizing and nitrogen fixing bacteria on the fruit quality of tomato, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with 9 treatments and 3 replications has been conducted. in this experiment, tomato (super chief cv.) seedlings of the in the treasury cultivation with single and combined treatments of the potassiu...

This study was carried out on olive trees cv. Amygdalifolia, to investigate the effect of spraying potassium nitrate, KnO3, and zinc sulfate, ZnSo4, on the fruit weight, dimension and volume. The plants were sprayed with 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% KnO3 and 0, 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75% ZnSO4 and their combinations in August about halfway through the fruit growth period. The highest fruit weight was observe...
