Almond, Prunus dulcis (Miller) D.A. Webb, syn. Prunus amygdalus Batsch is an important crop due to its fruits with high comercial value. In Portugal, there are traditional orchards in which almond trees grew on marginal soils, rainfed and with consequent low productivity; more recently huge investments in modern orchards with varieties originally from France and Spain such as ‘Ferraganés’, ‘Ferraduel’, ‘Guara’, ‘Marcona’, among others, are replacing the Portuguese varieties1. So, it is important to preserve the traditional almond varieties and the purpose of the present study was to compare the chemical composition of 18 traditional cultivars maintained in the field collection with those commercial cultivars from Europe.
