Abstract
Results of phenological, pomological and physical characteristics of 13 sour cherry cultivars of similar ripening periods planted in varietal and introduction trials in experimental orchard of the Institute of Viticulture, Enology and Pomology in Donja Zelina, was presented in this paper. Research was conducted on following cultivars: Köröszer, Kos, Gerema, Ungarische Traubige, Morina, Köröszer Pandy, Maliga Emleke, Schattenmorelle Vowi, Karneol, Debreceni bötermö, Kelleris 16, Schattenmorelle Bonn and Kántorjánosi. Trees were planted in 2007. The aim of this research was to determine reaction of cultivars in our agro-ecological conditions and compare new and already known sour cherry varieties. During 2011 vegetation season following characteristics were measured: weigth, heigth, length and width of the fruit and lenght of the petiole. Physical properties of fruits were calculated by using the results of measured pomological parameters.
The average fruit weight ranged from 4.66 g (Gerema) to 8.16 g (Karneol), fruit height from 16.58 mm (Ungarische Traubige) to 20.59 mm (Karneol), fruit width from 19.70 mm (Ungarische Traubige) to 25.15 mm (Karneol), fruit thickness from 17.57 mm (Kántorjánosi) to 22.77 mm (Karneol), and length of a petiole from 26.51 mm (Maliga Emleke) to 46.33 mm (Köröszer Pandy).
