Using the measured length, width, weight and the calculated profile index data, the samplescan be divided in groups of fruit forms. The base of the fruit form groups were the works ofPriszter (1962) and Fintha and Szabó (2005). We classified the samples in the following groupsshowed in table 2.ConclusionsThe results of our experiments correspond to the data of similar studies in neighbour countries.Observing a small number of specimens, we found valuable types for further investigation likeSzinpetri 2 and Kács 1 with heavy fruits and outstanding flesh proportion, and Kisgyır 1 and 3with dark red colour and easy to core attributes. The possibility of finding valuable specimens ofcourse is higher when the sample amount is larger, and this increases the chance of finding andselecting several well-adapted local cultivars.References1.
