The
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 10 genotypes;
fruit weights were found between 198.8 and 366.0 g, seed hardness of the fruit
was medium-hard in eight genotypes, hard in two genotypes, aril yield ranged
from 58.1 to 70.0% and fruit juice volume was between 63.9 and 135.7 ml. The
upper peel color was purple in four genotypes, pink-red in two genotypes,
orange-red in one genotype and orange in three genotypes. The bottom peel color
is orange-red in seven genotypes and orange in three genotypes. Aril color was
dark purple in three genotypes, purple in two genotypes, medium red in two
genotypes and pink-red in three genotypes. The acid content was found to be
between 0.65 and 1.21% and the amount of total soluable solid (TSS) varied
between 15.0 and 21.0%. It was concluded that all 10 genotypes were promising
and these genotypes showed superior characteristics.
