The selection study revealed that 40 hawthorn types were identified as hopeful genotypes. The fruit weight of the hawthorn genotypes was found to be vary from 0.98g and 6.76g, the weight of core 0.22 to 0.97g. The study resulted that the fruit color of the genotypes are yellow, orange or red while its shape is generally round </span> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-ansi-language:EN-US">. <span style="letter-spacing:-.1pt"> <o:p> </o:p> </span> </span> </p>}, number={4}, publisher={Mevlüt AKÇURA}
