ADAPTATIONS OF SOME SELECTED ALMONDS TO MEDITERRANEAN REGION OF TURKEY

During the years between 1984 and 1990, an adaptation work was carried out to find the most adaptable almond types to Mediterranean ecological conditions and compared with Texas almond cultivar.

Among the earliest almond types, especially 48–5 was determined as the highest yielding and regular bearer almond type.
The flowering periods of 101–9, 101–13 and 106–1 almond types and Gülcan-I were observed as even later cultivars than Texas.

Generally, 7–21, 48–1, 48–2 and 48–3 were determined as intermediate shelled almonds with about 40 % of kernel ratio.
