This study was carried out during the growing season of 2014 to evaluate four local grape cultivars (Sadani, Rashmiree, Khoshnaw and Doshawi) which were chosen from four different locations (Dukan, Qaradagh, Sharbazhar and Penjwin) in Sulaimani governorate. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of location on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of grape berries. Results indicated that there were differences among locations and cultivars regarding the parameters under taken in this study, Qaradagh location superior in term of weight and size of 100 berries and firmness followed by Dukan which was recorded the highest value for total soluble solids and total acidity percentage but less value was recorded in Sharbazhar and Penjwin respectively. The highest value of berries juice percentage were in Qaradagh but less value was in Sharbazhar. Rashmiree cultivar was superior over other cultivars in term of weight and size of 100 berries followed by Sadani then followed by Doshawi and khoshnaw cultivar respectively. Khoshnaw cultivar had the highest TSS and was significantly overtopped Rashmiree and Doshawi cultivars respectively, Doshawi cultivar was significantly superior over other cultivars regarding juice percentage and has the maximum value followed by Sadani, the minimum total acidity percentage was recorded with Sadani grape cultivar which was significantly superior only Doshawi cultivar where registered the highest total acidity percentage. The combination between location and cultivars was significantly affected the parameters undertaken in this study. The combination of Qaradagh + Rashmiree gave the maximum values for nearly all the measured parameters. | ||
