Abstract
This study was conducted in 2003-2004 and 2004-2005 growing periods. Our local cultivar “Osmanlı”, European and American cultivars: “Camarosa”, “Sweet Charlie”, “Gaviota”, “Maya”, “Paros”, “Cilady”, “Cigoulette”, “Marlate”, “Sophie”, “Ciloe”, “Diamante” and “Camarosa” , hybrids from Italian breeding program: “92/340/3”, “MT/j24/2”, “MT99/20/1”, “MT99/121/9”, “MT99/163/14”, “MT99/163/19”and “MT99/163/22”, and hybrids from Turkish breeding program: “3”, “5”, “6”, “8”, “11”, “13” and “17” were used as plant material.
Average yield per plant (g/plant), fruit weight (g) and some phenological plant characteristics such as plant growth shape, plant density, plant vigour, leaf size, leaf softness, beginning of flowering time and response to Fe chlorosis of experimental strawberry genotypes were evaluated. Hybrids MT J24/2 and MT 99/163/22 were found to be very satisfactory in terms of average yield/plant, and fruit weight respectively.
