Olive Cultivars in Spain

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The diversity and antiquity of the cultivars, their restricted distribution and the limited use of rootstocks characterize cultivated olive ( Olea europaea L.) plant material in Spain. An exploration survey identified 262 different cultivars, which have been introduced in the Olive Germplasm Bank in Córdoba, Spain. Evaluation of this germplasm, field trials and a breeding program are in progress.
