Study was conducted in five locations as the important areas for
pomegranate cultivation and production in Yemen, during the period (15/1–
15/8/2004). Eight accessions of local pomegranate were used in this study:
Taefi, Orkobi, Mellies–Hada, Khaz
emy, Sommaty, Kodary, Chiny and Mellies–
Raudha in addition to the wild pomegranate type (Socotria). The
morphological characters were determined for leaves, flowers,fruits and seeds.
The chemical analysis for juice was also assessed. Maximum rate for fruit
weight was 527.3 gm for Kodary accession, whereas fruit Juic varied between
49.5–63.2%, while peel / fruit was varied between15% in Taefi and 35.9 % in
Chiny, whereas the peel thickness varied between 1.5–4.2 mm. The Scotria was
found to be evergreen, and flowers around the year. Kazemy accession gave
higher fruits number/tree with rate 246.7. The greatest rate of T.S.S and
Vitamin C were 18.57% and 11.12 mg respectively for Chiny accession, and the
highest content of organic acids in these accessions was 0.54 % for Taefi.
The research was carried out in the center of the Research and
Improvement of Sheep and Camels in salamiah. The study was
conducted on 9 female camels, within semi-open barns, semiintensive
care system, and the camels were fed on mixtures of
barl
ey, vetch and some concentrated fodder, Fodder mixtures were
determined to suit the nutritional needs of the physiological and
age-related condition of the study. The herd was also applied to the
preventive vaccination system according to the preventive immunity
program.
The aim of study was to compare the physicochemical and morphological properties of
Five pomegranate cultivars grown in different region of latakia.
Properties included: fruit fresh weight,number of arils per fruit, peel weight, soluble solids
(TS
S), titratable acidity (TA)vitamin, reducing sugar .
Fruit weight ranged from(336.8 -484.77 g), peel weight of the fruit was recorded from
93,84 to 127,85g, juice weight was( 69,33-151,66 g) and reducing sugars ranged between
(3.64 -12.4 %). total soluble solid ranged from( 14.5- 16.5) % and titratable acidity ranged
between( 0.358- 1.321%)in pomegranate juices.vitamin C content also ranged between
11.5- 14.5 mg\100 ml).
