Article Determination of Morphological and Pomological Characteristics of Pomegranate (Punica Granatum L.) Genotypes Grown in Diyarbakır(2019) Çiçek, Mehmet; Pakyurek, Mine; Çelik, FeritThe aim of this study was to determine the pomological and morphological characteristics of pomegranate genotypes grown in Çermik and Dicle districts of Diyarbakır province. As a result of the study carried out on 10genotypes; fruit weights were found between 198.8 and 366.0 g, seed hardness of the fruit was medium-hard ineight genotypes, hard in two genotypes, aril yield ranged from 58.1 to 70.0% and fruit juice volume was between63.9 and 135.7 ml. The upper peel color was purple in four genotypes, pink-red in two genotypes, orange-red inone genotype and orange in three genotypes. The bottom peel color is orange-red in seven genotypes and orangein three genotypes. Aril color was dark purple in three genotypes, purple in two genotypes, medium red in twogenotypes and pink-red in three genotypes. The acid content was found to be between 0.65 and 1.21% and theamount of total soluable solid (TSS) varied between 15.0 and 21.0%. It was concluded that all 10 genotypes werepromising and these genotypes showed superior characteristics.
