An experiment was conducted in the research station Horticulture and landscape gardening Dept./college of Agriculture university of Diyala for the period from 2016/12/15 up to 2017/7/1. to study the effect of colchicine and its effect on the properties of the chemical properties of the fruit of the plant, because most of the species in the country with low productivity, of the Strawberry plant when treating its apical part by the Colchicine with concentrations of zero, 0.05, and 0.1%. The number of treatment times was (one treatment and two treatments). The results of the showed that the plants that treated with 0.1% Colchicine were Increased the number of fruits (11.650 fruit/plant), the size of fruit (3.033 cm3), the weight of a single fruit (9.683 mg), the amount of productivity in the plant (108.233 g/plant), the percentage of acidity (0.707%), the amount of vitamin C (46.969 mg/100g),. when Compared with the control value of treatment, it found that the control value of treatment has more number of stomata with average (26 stomata.mm2). while with the treatment of 0.05% concentration, the percentage of the sugars was the highest around (16.488%). The treatment of the top of the plant did not affect the number of fruits per plant, while the size of the fruit affected the date of treatment exceeded the plants treated twice the plants on the treatment of one time at a rate of 8.388 cm 3. As for the fruit weight and the quantity of plant yield, there was no significant difference between the date of treatment of the plant. Also, there was no effect of the date of treatment in the percentage of total acidity of the fruit. The effect of the double interaction between both the concentration and the treatment date. The results indicate that the highest number of fruits per plant, the quantity of fruit per plant and the quantity of vitamin C in fruit is achieved when treated with 0.1% The fruit weight and the total percentage of total sugars eliminated all the interference coefficients on the comparison treatment. The results also indicate that the highest rate of fruit size and the percentage of total acidity was in the treatment 0.1% and two treatment (9.910 cm 3) and (0.755%) respectively.

Some physico-chemical properties of ten pomegranate accessions collected from different districts in the Kurdistan region of Iraq were investigated in this paper. Considerable correlations between the characteristics studied were found and valuable pomological traits were observed. Cluster analysis showed the homonyms between some pomegranate accessions. Principle component analysis reported that the component describing the greatest variability also positively correlated with fruit weight, total aril weight, total peel weight, volume of juice, total soluble solids (TSS), fruit length, fruit diameter, pH, aril length, and 100-seed fresh weight, but negatively correlated with titratable acidity (TA). Fruit weight was firmly correlated with total aril weight, total peel weight, volume of juice, TSS, aril length, 100-seed fresh weight, fruit length and fruit diameter. The volume of juice was correlated with TSS, aril length, 100-seed fresh weight, fruit length, fruit diameter and it was observed that with an increase in the fruit size, the volume of juice increased as well. The correlation between total phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity was not observed. The associations found among physical and chemical traits suggest that consumers should use large fruits with large arils so that they have more juice. Thus, ?Choman?, ?Raniyeh? and ?Halabja? were juicier than other accessions.

The main purpose of this study was to highlight the nutraceutical value of the tomato fruit for five hybrids recently introduced in culture, during the harvesting phases: mature green, half ripen and full ripen: ‘Antalya’, ‘Cemil’, ‘Lorely’, ‘Tiger’ and ‘Sacher’. They differentiate because of their size and fruit colour. The parameters to be followed for each harvest phase were: the chlorophyll a and b content, the total carotenes, the soluble substance, vitamin C, the titratable acidity, and also a maturity index was established. The results obtained showed significant differences between the hybrids, but also during the maturation phases. It singularised Tiger F1 with a total carotene contentof 7.1 (green) to 12.5 (half ripen) and 18.6 mg/100g f.w. (in full ripen) and Sacher F1 with vitamin C from 6.2 (green) to 17.2 (half ripen) and 20.7 mg/100g f.w. (in full ripen). This variability can be attributed to these harvesting phases, but also to the genetic factors, such as cultivar type, fruit size and colour.

Fig Tree

The objective of this work was to verify the influence of planting density on productivity and fruit quality of the fig tree. The design was used in three blocks, the plants of the cultivar Roxo de Valinhos were submitted to three planting spacings: 5 x 0.5 m; 5 x 1.0 m; and 5 x 1.5 m. The evaluated characteristics were: length of branches; average weekly growth of branches; fruit size; average fruit weight;soluble solids (°Brix); yield of mature fruits; productivity of green fruits; accumulated productivity; and dry mass of fruits.The length of the branches was not influenced by planting spacing, the plants conducted at lower densities presented higher productivity, both of green fruits and accumulated productivity.Plants submitted to lower planting density produced fruits with higher dry matter, but these were smaller in size, but without significant difference for those submitted to lower density. It wasconcluded that productivity is directly affected by fig planting density, but not all the qualitative aspects of the fruits were affected.
