| Abstract:
This experiment was carried out in order to determine the best almond cultivars for irrigated areas in Gaziantep, Turkey. The experimental orchard was established at 3 × 5 m in spacing in 1998. Twenty almond cultivars and types were used as material based on tree growth, bearing, yield and some quality characteristics. The best diameter growth of trunk was occurred on Yaltinski cultivar. The highest yield per decare (0.1 ha.) was obtained from Ferraduel (572.6 kg), Cristomorto (516.7 kg), Yaltinski (504.9 kg) and 101-23 (500.9 kg) in 2003. | |
