Abstract

This study was carried out during 2000-2002 in Amasya, Turkey where cherry is grown widely. The objective of the study was to characterize pomological and phenological characteristics of 28 sweet cherry cultivars grown in Amasya. Flowering occurred between the second week of March and the third week of April. Ripening was between the third week of April and the second week of July. Local cultivars such as 'Türkoglu', 'Karakiraz', and 'Köroglu ripened earlier and 'Barama', 'Karakirtik-2' and 'Geçkciraz' ripened latér than the others. The largest fruits were obtained from '0900 Ziraat', 'Haci Ali' 'Lambert', 'Van' and 'Bing'. Fruit, flower and leaf characteristics of these were also determined.
