Abstract
We can develop the best kinds for specific uses with precise identification of fruit trees traits. In order to study some properties of three olive cultivars including 'Konservolia', 'Sevillana' and 'Manzanilla', this research was conducted in factorial experiment based on randomized complete blocks in three regions, including Khorramabad, Kouhdasht and Veysian. Results of statistical comparison showed that in all evaluated traits, except for the length of the fruit there are significant differences between regions. Also, there were significant differences between different cultivars for most traits, except for chlorophyll (P<0.01). Comparing the means of evaluated traits using the Duncan test showed that cultivars in Khorramabad had the highest values in terms of morphological characteristics among different regions and between different cultivars, Konservolia cultivar had the highest values in terms of morphological characteristics including length, width and diameter of fruit, 20 fruit and fruit weight and fruit dry weight. Also, the Konservolia cultivar had highest oil content and yield between the cultivars that in this terms it had significant differences with other cultivars. Results of correlation showed that in most cases between the morphological characteristics together and yield attribute with other traits, there is a high correlation. Finally, the Konservolia cultivar can be offered as an appropriate dual-purpose cultivar for commercial olive orchards in the Lorestan province, especially Khorramabad city and similar areas because of the high yield and high percentage of the oil.
