Özet

Seven apricot cultivars (Beliana, Canino, Precoce de Colomer, Feriana, Rouge de Sernhac, Tokalo. glu, and Macar) were evaluated at the experimental orchard of the Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Mustafa Kemal University, Hatay, Turkey. Phenological and pomological characteristics such as flowering period, average fruit weight, yield, fruit dimensions, flesh/seed ratio, acidity, and total soluble solids (TSSs) were examined. In addition, yield parameters of the cultivars wre evaluated. Over four years, the highest average fruit weight was obtained from Rouge de Sernhac (37.9 g), while Feriana had the lowest (30.9 g). The flesh/seed ratio was the highest in the Canino (16.8). Canino had the highest TSS content with 14.5%, whereas Beliana had the lowest TSS value with 10.6%. Beliana and Feriana ripened the earliest (May 20) while Precoce de Colomer ripened latest (June 7). The average yield was highest on ouge de Sernhac (41.2 kg/tree). Beliana and Feriana cultivars are recommended for precocity, and Rouge de Sernhac and Tokalo. glu for middle season in D ortyol, Turkey.
