| Abstract | ||
| This study amid to evaluate physical and chemical fruit characteristics of Sarnary date palm grown at Korn-Ornbo-Aswan Governorate and EI-Kanater. Kalubia Governorate. The data reveal that. Samany cultivar grown at EI-Kanater gave the highest bunch we;ght and total yield which compared with those grown at Kom-Ombo in the seccnd season. Fruit moisture content percentages was significantly higher in fruit from El-Kentar, while reducing sugars percentage and crude fiber were not significantly affected under the two locations in both seasons. Samany date palm grown at Kom-Ombo gave the lowest fruit. weight and size. seed and pulp weight in the two seasons. but gave the largest fruit length and diameter in the second season only as compared with the Samany grown at El-Kanater. Samany grown at Kern- Ornbo gave the nighest total and reducing sugars percentage. total soluble solids percentage and the lowest percentage of total acidity. It could be generally concluded that Samany cv. produced early yield and gave fruit with better physical and chemical characteristics under Aswan conditions. | ||
