Comparison of Some Physical Properties in Fruits of Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) cv. Hicaznar Grown in Different Region
Abstract
The study was carried out to determine the variation of fruit quality properties of
pomegranate cultivar ‘Hicaznar’ in the nine commercial orchards where located in Aegean (İzmir,
Aydın, Denizli), Mediterranean (Antalya), and South East (Şanlıurfa) regions, in 2013 growing
season. For this purpose, physical characteristics (weight, the size, shape index, fruit peel rate, peel
thickness, grain yield, fruit juice yield and peel colour) in the fruit samples which were taken in
harvest time were determined. In the study, there was found significantly differences between the
orchards for some of the evaluated characteristics. According to data the values of fruit weight were
between 259.8 and 740.8 g, the value of fruit width were between 77.78 and 110.51 mm, the fruit
heights were between 69.14 and 96.48 mm, the value of shape index were between 0.85 and 0.93, the
fruit peel rates were between %43.57 and %51.32, the peel thickness were between 4.37 and 5.54 mm,
the grain yields were between %48.68 and %61.91, the fruit juice yields were between %64.79 and
%75.87; L values were between 38.55 and 48.25, a* values were between 47.35 and 55.43, b* values
were between 17.07 and 24.27 among the orchards. There were no relationship between altitude and
fruit physical characteristics in the study. Generally the largest (481.64 g) and the reddest peel
(a*=52.58) of fruit was obtained in Antalya region. While the fruit juice yield of Aegean and
Mediterranean regions were similar (69%), and Şanlıurfa (75%) region had the highest yield.
