Abstract

Physical traits of fruit, i.e. size, weight, volume of nut, kernel, shell and inshell air in common walnut (Juglans regia L.), cvs. 'Franquette', 'G-139', and 'Parissienne' grown in 2001 were analysed and nuts were submitted to a pressure test. We wanted to select the fruit trait that influence the shell cracking quality at the most, giving us the suitable cultivar for the machine cracking.
