Özet
The objective of this study was to determine the changes in the quality of the 'Big Top' and 'Perfect Delight' nectarine cultivars grown in Mersin (Yenice/Tarsus). Fruits were obtained from trees grafted on GF-677 rootstock and planted 3x5 m in an orchard of Uni Tarim. Fruit width, length and height, weight, weight/diameter, skin and flesh color, fruit flesh firmness, total soluble solid (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), juice pH and TSS/TA were measured on fruit samples collected from tagged trees from after thinning in the period of small fruit to ripening at a 7-15 days interval during fruit development. Data indicated that fruit flesh firmness, TSS, skin color especially a* value of CIE L*a*b* and weight/diameter were important criteria in determining optimum harvest maturity. Based on all the criteria, the second and the third weeks of June were the optimum harvest time for 'Big Top' and 'Perfect Delight' cultivars in order to deliver fruit at optimum commercial maturity and quality and to obtain adequate storage time.
