The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different environments on fruit characteristics of some almond cultivars in Yayladaǧi (Hatay) ecological conditions. Five almond cultivars were studied: 'Genco', 'Ferraduel', 'Ferragnes', 48-5 and 101-9 planted in two fields in Yayladaǧi (Hatay), in the Eastern Mediterranean Region of Turkey. Two trials were established in 1996; one trial at Sebenoba village, 36o 02' N, 36o 01' E, 328 m.a.s.l. and one trial at Karakose village, 36o 01' N, 36o 01' E 422 m.a.s.l. Although all the parameters evaluated were higher in Sebenoba, nut and kernel weight, nut and kernel length showed significant differences between the Sebenoba and Karakose locations. The highest nut and kernel weight were found in Sebenoba village conditions. The kernel weights of 'Ferragnes' (1.33 g), 'Genco' (1.28 g) and 'Ferradual' (1.21 g) were bigger than the others. 101-9 and 'Ferragnes' had the highest kernel percentage. In the study, especially 'Ferragnes' gave better results than the others.
