Randomized trial evaluates yield traits in table grape cultivars, indicating unique genetic backgrounds.

This research aims to characterize the agronomic and genetic traits of table grape cultivars in Azerbaijan.
Observed 25 table grape cultivars over 3 consecutive years.
Collected phenotypic (ampelographic and agronomic) and genetic (microsatellite) data.
Produced and made available ampelographic descriptions of the cultivars.
Local cultivars show a productivity decrease of approximately 31%.
The introduced cultivar ‘Taifi Rozovyi’ produces grapes about twice as large as average, leading to very high yield.
Multiple genetic backgrounds found within the Azerbaijani grapevine germplasm.

Guliyeva et al. (2026) studied this question.
