Cornelian cherry is widely distributed in world and East Azerbaijan, Qazvin States of Iran as well. There are different fruit quality and quantity characteristics for this crop. The current study was conducted to identify the main characteristics of cornelian cherry among the germplasms. Eighteen germplasm are selected and evaluated. Amount of 20 samples of each germplasm were taken per replicate. The following characteristics were measured among the germplasms; fruit length rang (from 1.48 to 2.40 cm), fruit width rang (from 1.08 to 1.60), fruit length/width ratio rang (from 1.2 to 1.84), fruit fresh weight rang (from 1.57 to 3.52g), fruit dry matter weight rang (from 0.44 to 0.85), SSC rang (from 9% to 23/5%), pH (from 2.95 to 3.32), moisture content rang (from 63.19% to 80.30%), fruit flesh weight rang (from 1.26 to 3.01) flesh/stone ratio rang (from 2.89 to 6.87), stone length rang (from 1.08 to 1.62cm), stone width rang (from 0.51 to 0.72cm), stone length/width ratio rang (from 1.2 to 1.84) and stone weight rang (from 0.27 to 0.64). According to the results, T.S2, Ka2 and R.Q2 were the largest fruit and Ka5 showed the sweetish test.
