AB <p>This study was conducted to determine some pomological characteristics and macro- micro nutrient contents of both leaves and fruits of 11 Feijoa genotypes (<em>Feijoa sellowiana&nbsp;</em>Berg.) selected from Sakarya Province in Turkey. For these genotypes, fruit weight, fruit length, fruit width, soluble solid content and fruit acidity values ranged between 18.57 &ndash; 40.00 g, 27.74 -59.95 mm, and 23.42-39.43 mm, 8.30-14.20%, and 3.33-4.50, respectively. The analysis results showed that N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu contents in dried fruits of these selected genotypes were 0.72-1.47%, 0.091-0.104%, 0.53-0.94%, 0.33-0.75%, 0.070-0.103%, 38-200 ppm, 2.10-6.30 ppm, 2.90-7.30 ppm, and 1.71- 6.95 ppm. On the other hand, N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu contents of leaves for those contents were 1.42-2.31%,0.092-0.134%, 0.32-0.66%, 1.70-3.40%, 0.19-0.32%, 70-148 ppm,18-63 ppm, 6.70-11.10 ppm, and 1.32- 2.88 ppm. Significant differences among these genotypes were found for chemical composition (P&lt;0.05). As all the trees were in similar environment and agronomical practices, it could be suggested that these differences due to genotypic differences.</p>
