This study aimed to assess the characteristics of fruit quality and seed formation resulting from pollination by four different pollen donors: ‘SKK2’, ‘Deliwoong’, ‘Pohwa’, and ‘Chieftain’. The objective was to identify the most effective pollen donor for yielding commercially viable fruits in two cultivars of kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis var. chinensis): ‘Sunfl’ and ‘Garmhwang’. Over a two-year period, the fruit setting rate for ‘Sunfl’ and ‘Garmhwang’ kiwifruit, pollinated by the four donors, consistently exceeded 96%. For ‘Sunfl’, the heaviest fruit weight was observed when pollinated with ‘Deliwoong’ for both years, while the lightest fruit was associated with ‘Pohwa’ in 2021 and ‘Chieftain’ in 2022. For ‘Garmhwang’, there was a yearly variation with the heaviest fruit weight linked to ‘Deliwoong’ in 2021 and ‘Chieftain’ in 2022. When examining the fruit characteristics of ‘Sunfl’, the dry matter content was highest when pollinated by ‘SKK2’, and the soluble solids content peaked with ‘Chieftain’ in 2021, although no significant differences were observed in 2022. Total and immature seed numbers in ‘Sunfl’ were highest with hexaploid pollen donors, while the 1000-seed weight was highest with tetraploid pollen donors. For the fruit characteristics of ‘Garmhwang’, the dry matter content and titratable acidity were highest when pollinated by ‘SKK2’. Soluble solids content showed annual variation. Mature and total seed number in ‘Garmhwang’ were highest with ‘Deliwoong’ and ‘Chieftain’, while the immature seed number was lowest with ‘SKK2’.
