Abstract

Commercial and local (PrunusDulsus L.) cultivars vary considerably in their fruit and kernel characteristics. In the present study, fruit and kernel traits and kernel biochemical composition of 14 almond cultivars grown in Morocco, were examined.Results showed significant differences exist among all genotypes across a number of morphological traits and bioactives properties. The imported cultivars generally showed improved physical traits, such as larger fruit and kernels and. However, the Moroccan cultivars such as Rhizlane-1 and “Rhizlane-2had a higher phenolic content (59 and 54 mg/g-1 DW), had a polyphenol content in kernel skin than all imported cultivars. Rhizlane-1 showed some advantages such higher antioxidant capacity (73%), very low radical scavenging capacity (IC50= 2mg/ml). Biochemical analysis revealed that local cultivars present a potential sources for qualitative traits in breeding programs
