Abstract | ||||
This study was carried out during two successive years (2013 and 2014) at El – QasrValley in Bahriya Oasis, Giza Governorate on three chance-seedling of dry date palms and Soltany cultivar. This study aimed to evaluate yield loads and characters of fruit physical and chemical characteristics in two stages (completing color and ripening stages). It was selected Soltany cultivar as reference because it considered to be the highest economic value among local dry cultivars in Bahariya Oasis. The results revealed that, Palm(2) gave the highest yield ( 70,70 Kg) comparing Soltany cultivar ( 63, 66 Kg ) and palm (3) recorded (58,66 Kg ) , also palm (3) gave the highest weight of fruit and flesh, fruit length, fruit diameter and fruit size, while, Soltany cultivar and palm (3) recorded the highest total sugar and reducing sugar in ripening stage and, it also records the highest value in the Soluble solids content in two stage while palm (3 ) gave the highest dry matter content in two seasons comparing with Soltany cultivar. Palm (3) can be the beginning of dry cultivar with good characteristics under Bahariya Oasis conditions. The soltany cultivar and palm (3) is suitable as a dry date palm replacement and in the extension for southern Egyptian Governorates . | ||||
