Abstract
This study was carried out during two successive seasons of 2011 and 2012 on some date palm cultivars grown under the conditions of Toshky region. Seven date palm cultivars were evaluated and classified to two groups: dry date palm cultivars (Sakkoty, Bartamoda, Gondela, Malkaby and Balady [Maghal])  and soft date palm cultivars (Barhee and Sokkary). Sakkoty and Bartamoda (dry date palm cultivars) and Barhee (soft date palm cultivar) gave the highest number of leaves per palm/year, while Malakaby (dry date palm cultivar) and Sokkary (soft date palm cultivar) gave the highest number of leaflet per leaf in both seasons. Bartamoda (dry date plm cultivar) and Sokkary (soft date palm cultivar) gave the highest yield, fruit weight and flush weight in the two seasons. Balady [Maghal] (dry date palm cultivar) and Barhee (soft date palm cultivar) showed higher moisture content (%) in both seasons. Bartamoda (dry date palm cultivar) and Sokkary (soft date palm cultivar) gave the highest soluble solids content and total sugars (%) while Gondela (dry date palm cultivar) and Sokkary (soft date palm cultivar) gave the highest reducing sugars (%) in the two seasons. Evaluation study revaluated that Sakkoty and Bartamoda were the best dry date palm cultivars. Wherever, Sokkary cultivar was the best soft date palm cultivars growing under Toshky conditions.
