Article Fruit Sets and Fruit Drops in Turkish Apricot (Prunus Armeniaca L.) Varieties Grown Under Ecological Conditions of Van, Turkey(Asian Network for Scientific Information, 2007) Fikret Balta, M.; Muradoglu, F.; Askin, M.A.; Kaya, T.This research was conducted to determine fruit sets and fruit drops from full bloom to harvest in Turkish apricot varieties for two years. In the study, changes in fruit sets and fruit drops following full bloom period in apricot varieties were assessed in eight different dates in the first year and in eleven different dates in the second year. In 2004, the final fruit sets were determined a few days before harvest time (13 July) as 24.5% in Soganci, 34.9% in Hasanbey, 41.3% in Alyanak, 45.5% in Tokaloglu, 31.1% in Salak and 35.1% in Sekerpare. The final fruit sets at the harvest time of 2005 were found as 4.5% in Soganci, 19.8% in Hasanbey, 15.6% in Alyanak, 31.1% in Tokaloglu, 20.1% in Salak, 20.4% in Sekerpare, 7.1% in Hacihaliloglu, 12.6% in Kabaasi and 21.7% in Sakit. © 2007 Asian Network for Scientific Information.Article Pomological Definition of Native Walnuts (Juglans Regia L.) Grown in Centrral Bitlis(Asian Network for Scientific Information, 2007) Fikret Balta, M.; Dogan, A.; Kazankaya, A.; Ozrenk, K.; Celik, F.In this research conducted in native walnut population during 2003-2004 years in Bitlis, 17 walnut genotype having kernel weight over 5 g were selected and pomologically defined. Selected genotypes were determined to have a range of 32.90-41.22 mm for nut width, 29.96-38.32 mm for nut thickness, 32.14-36-86 mm for nut length, 10.94-17.20 g for nut weight, 5.48-8-50 g for kernel weight, 41.63-51.92% for kernel percentage and 1.22-1.98 mm for shell thickness. The kernel fullness of all genotypes except for one was good, kernel rottenness was not run into all genotypes. In addition, kernel colors of genotypes were light, dark, yellow and extreme dark. Findings pointed out that Central Bitlis district had valuable walnut genetic resources. © 2007 Asian Network for Scientific Information.
