Abstract :This study was carried out to evaluate the morphological and pomological diversity of 18 different jujube genotypes that are border trees or grown for hobby purposes in Dinar District of Afyonkarahisar Province. For pomological measurements, jujube fruits were harvested when the peel color was less than 50% brown-red and healthy leaf samples were taken for morphological measurement in the same period. According to the results of the research, leaf length, leaf width, fruit length, fruit width, fruit weight, endocarp length, endocarp width and endocarp weight values of the studied genotypes are found to be 29.47-50.66 mm, 13.35-28.70 mm, 14.72-38.93 mm, 14.79-35.72 mm, 1.51-17.54 g, 7.42-23.87 mm, 5.12-11.00 mm, 0.20-1.55 g, respectively. The fact that the morphological and pomological diversity of the jujube genetic resources in the region was carried out was very high, indicates the richness of a valuable treasure for jujube variety breeding.
