Abstract

Grapevine is an ancient agricultural crop, yet despite the massive advances in cultivation and domestication, many of the commercial varieties that make up the bulk of the international wine and fresh market have been in production since the Roman times. Coruh Valley is rich in terms of grape biodiversity and grape varieties grown in valley stand out with its different taste and thin peel traits due to different climatic condition of the valley. The main grape variety in the valley is ‘Beyaz Turfanda’ and the vineyards include this variety approximately %95 ratio. The variety has big berry and cluster size. It is observed that diverse ‘Beyaz Turfanda’ clones in Yusufeli district in Coruh valley has been appeared during long growing period. In this study 10 ‘Beyaz Turfanda’ clones were selected and evaluated according to berry weight (g), cluster size (cm2), cluster length (cm), cluster width (cm), Soluble Solid Content (SSC), pH, acidity and vitamin C. Results showed diversity for both morphological and biochemical parameters among the ‘Beyaz Turfanda’ clones. The clones showed cluster size between 195 cm2 and 253 cm2.
