Sažetak
Phenological growth stages is a part of a complex science called phenology. Phenology is searching the appearance of biological cycles and their connection with climate. The appearance of phenological growth stages for plants of the same species depends on climatic factors, but also on variety. Varietal identification is nowadays performed mostly by molecular techniques, phenological science is however important for determining the optimal moments for application of singular agrotechnical interventions. The official scale of International Olive Oil Council is Colbrant and Fabre scale, and of European Plant Protection Organization is BBCH scale. Phenological measures help us in a better understanding of climatic variations, and plants are a reliable instrument for individuation of global climatic changes.
In the collection of the Institute of Agriculture and Tourism Poreč, phenological growth stages are researched on autochthonous and some introduced olive varieties.
