    Adaptation of some foreign almond cultivars in Dörtyol (Hatay) ecological conditions
    (International Society for Horticultural Science, 2011) Polat, A.A.; Caliskan, O.
    This study was carried out during the years between 2002 and 2006. The aim of this tudy was to determine the phenological, pomological characteristics and yielding status performance of three foreign almond cultivars (Texas, Nonpareil and Drake) in Dörtyol (Hatay), Turkey, which has a Mediterranean climate. Drake was found to be the latest flowering cultivar, while Nonpareil and Texas were the earliest flowering. In these cultivars, the nut shell weights varied in the range 1.70-2.42 g, kernel weights in the range 0.81-1.04 g, the percentage of kernel in the range 43.58-48.44%, the shell thickness in the range 1.57-2.50 mm and the double kernel ratio in the range 3.9-6.0% were determined. Average over five years the highest yields per tree were 2.53 kg in Nonpareil and 2.21 kg in Drake.

    Determination of pomological characteristics of some pomegranate cultivars in Dörtyol (Turkey) conditions
    (International Society for Horticultural Science, 2012) Polat, A.A.; Caliskan, O.; Kamiloglu, O.
    In this study, fruit quality characteristics of some pomegranate cultivars ('Hicaz', 'Katirbaşi', 'Çekirdeksiz' and 'Kara Mehmet') were determined in Dörtyol, Hatay, Turkey. Several pomological characteristics of the cultivars were determined from the 2002 until the 2006 growing season. Averaged over the 4 years, pomegranate cultivars had a range of 241.1-319.8 g for fruit weight, 67.5-78.7 mm fruit height, 75.2-85.3 mm fruit width, 2.9-4.0 mm peel thickness and 57.7-64.1% in percent arils. In addition, the total soluble solid content was between 14.3 and 16.6%, pH between 2.97 and 3.20, acidity between 0.39 and 1.59%. Pomegranate cultivars had a green or yellow background color, red or pink peel coverage and aril color, and soft, semi-hard and hard seeds. According to the data obtained, 'Hicaz' and 'Katirbaşi' were found to be promising for cultivation under the ecological conditions in Dörtyol.

    Performance of some peach and nectarine cultivars under east Mediterranean (Hatay/Turkey) conditions
    (International Society for Horticultural Science, 2012) Polat, A.A.; Caliskan, O.; Kamiloglu, O.
    Production of peach and nectarine (Prunus persica) in the East Mediterranean region (Turkey) has increased during recent years, requiring information on the performance of modern cultivars in the region. Thus, a long-term project was conducted to investigate bloom date, harvest date, fruit quality, and yield of various peaches and nectarines under the conditions of the East Mediterranean region during 2002 to 2006. 'Early Red', 'Redhaven', 'Dixired', 'Washington', 'J.H. Hale' peach cultivars and 'Cherokee', 'Independence', 'Nectared 4', 'Nectared 6', 'Nectared 8' nectarine cultivars were used in this study. The analysis of average response over four years indicated that 'Early Red' both bloomed (21 March) and was harvested earlier (6 June) than the other peach cultivars, while 'Cherokee' and 'Independence' were harvested earlier (15 June) than the other nectarine cultivars. Averaged over four years, fruit weight was determined at between 84.5 and 130.1 g; flesh/seed ratio between 8.0 and 15.2; total soluble solids (TSS) between 10.0 and 13.1%; pH between 3.27 and 3.52; titratable acidity between 0.58 and 0.83% for peaches and fruit weight was determined between 36.7 and 83.1 g; flesh/seed ratio between 5.8 and 7.7; TSS between 11.4 and 13.4%; pH between 2.95 and 3.49; titratable acidity between 0.86 and 1.40% for nectarines. Yield values ranged from 8.8 kg/tree ('J.H. Hale') to 20.8 kg/tree ('Dixired') for peaches, and 7.4 kg/tree ('Nectared 4') and 14.3 kg/tree ('Cherokee') for nectarines. Overall, 'Redhaven', 'Early Red' and 'Dixired' peaches, plus 'Cherokee' and 'Independence' nectarines showed satisfactory to good performance in this long-term evaluation.
