| Abstract:
This study was carried out in the Pozantı Agricultural Research and Application Centre of the University of Çukurova to determine some qualitative traits of promising quince types which were selected in different regions of Turkey, at Pozanti ecological conditions. Kalecik (0612), Ekmek (2604 and 2609), Cengelköy (2601), Şeker (3403), Limon (0514), Bardacık (3704), Altin Ayva (3401), Tekkes (0156), Istanbul (0518), Yerli (1918) and Eşme (5401 and 5403) were used as plant material. Some pomological traits, amounts of tannins and difficulty of swallow traits of these quince types were determined. According to the results, the largest fruits were obtained from Bardakcı, Istanbul, Limon and Seker quince types respectively and the smallest fruits were obtained from Altin Ayva. On the other hand, difficulty of swallow traits were least in Seker, Limon, Tekkes and Eşme (5401) quince types respectively and the highest difficulty of swallow trait was obtained from Cengelköy. | |
