Abstract :This study was conduted to determine the adaptability of four blackberry varieties insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Jumbo, Chester, Arphe, Boata); to the ecological conditions of Konya province in 2017-2018. For this purpose, phenological, pomological, chemical and plant properties of blackberry varietes were investigated. According to the research results; The first flowering took place on May 20 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Jumbo);, 23 May insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Chester);, June 3 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Arphe);, June 15 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Boata);. The first harvest dates was July 5 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Jumbo and Chester);, July 15 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Boata);, July 22 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Arphe); and the last harvest dates are July 26 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Boata);, 17 August insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Arphe);, 10 September insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Jumbo);, 16 September insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Chester);. On the other hand, after September 16 new fruits were produced by the Chester cultivar but could not be harvested owing to the fact that they did not mature. In terms of fruit weight, the highest values was determined in Jumbo insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(3.60 g); followed by Chester insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(2.82 g);, Arphe insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(1.19 g);, Boata insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(0.72 g); cultivars, respectively. According to the research results, it can be said that Chester and Jumbo varieties are superior to other varieties and can be recommended for the Konya ecology.
