Journal: PROCEEDINGS ON APPLIED BOTANY GENETICS AND BREEDING
Year: 2025

Background . Dagestan boasts a long tradition of apricot cultivation that resulted in a unique gene pool of this fruit tree. However, the potential of local apricot cultivars for breeding still remains poorly investigated. This fact validates the need for further research into apricot genetic resources in Dagestan. Materials and methods. The local breeding material of apricot (23 forms and 5 cultivars) underwent genetic evaluation. For convenience, all accessions were divided into 4 groups accor
