Most of almond cultivars ( prunus amygdalus , B. ) are self- incompatible therefore some other pollinizer cultivars should be used for commercial fruit production . In this research , in order to determine the best pollinizer and effect of male pollen source of fruit traits for some commercial almond cultivarsShokofeh , Azar , Yalda , Sahand and Ferragnes. An experiment was conducted at Sahand Horticultural Research Station during 2002-2005 . The experiment was set up in RCB with three replication and reciprocal crosses on 10 years old trees . In study effect type of pollen on fruit traits , parents chose with different fruit characteristic in crosses. The results indicated that some of the pollen types had significant effect on fruit size , time of ripening and softness of shell . However , the pollen source had no effect on kernel taste &lsquokernel color &lsquopercentage of twin kernels and wrinkling. Also in this study the best pollinizer were selected for each cultivars, based on fruit set percent , blooming time and effect of pollen on characteristics of fruit.
