| Abstract | ||||
| Seven olive cvs Aggezi Akse, Aggezi Shami, Picual, Frantoio, Coratina, Superinso and Koroneiki grown under Minia conditions were evaluated for their growth, flowering, yield and fruit quality during 2015 and 2016 seasons. An obvious variation on all the investigated growth, leaf content of pigments and nutrients, flowering, yield and fruit characteristics were observed among the seven olive cvs. Olive cvs Aggezi Akse, Aggezi Shami and Picual exhibited the highest values of these parameters. Olive cv Koroneiki had the lowest values. According to the values of yield and fruit characteristics during both seasons, it is suggested to plant olive cvs Aggezi Akse, Aggezi Shami and Picual, respectively under Minia region conditions. Conclusively, based on relatively higher yield and good fruit quality, it is suggested to select olive cv. Aggezi Akse, Aggezi Shami, Picual, Frantoio, Coratina, Superinso and Koroneiki in descending order to plant under Siwa Oasis conditions. | ||||
