Abstract

In this study, ripening period and several pomological and qualitative characteristics of brebas were determined in forty autochthonous fig accessions grown in Calabria (South Italy). The evaluated forty accessions are characterized by producing brebas with a very different ripening period, carpometric and qualitative characteristics. Regarding the ripening period, on the whole the studied accessions are able to guarantee a very large brebas harvesting period extending for almost seven weeks (from the end of the first ten days of June to the middle of the third ten days of July). Also, most of the accessions produced brebas of carpometric and qualitative characteristics similar or even superior to those produced by other more widespread cultivars. The evaluated accessions can be very important not only for its possible use in genetic improvement programs but also for its immediate use to create new commercial orchards for the production of brebas
