| Abstract:
Since Turkish apricot varieties are sensitive to Sclerotinia laxa, a hybridization programme was performed to get resistant hybrids with high economical value. ‘Boccuccia’, ‘Ivonne Liverani’, ‘Nugget’ and ‘San Castrese’ were used as pollinitors for ‘Hacihaliloğlu’. After artificial inoculation of one year old shoots, resistant types were selected. As a result of the evaluation of fruits characteristics for three years, some apricot hybrids were selected as promising in terms of dried and table apricot production. | |
