A new cultivar of walnut (Juglans sinensis) was developed through selection from Korea Forest Research Institute. The goals of this research were to evaluate the yielding of walnut and their fruit characteristics of walnut selected from different regions in Korean Wild. Different varieties of walnut grown in Korea, were investigated in what concerns fruit weights, fruit length and their yielding. The walnut belongs to the family Juglandaceae. It is one of the most important nut crops grown in temperate regions. Walnuts, the seeds of J. sinensis are a highly nutritious food. They are also used as a traditional remedy for treating cough, stomach ache and cancer in Asia. The present investigations were undertaken during 2000-2009 in five walnut growing areas. In the present study a wide range of variation was observed in walnut characters from different locations. From these varieties, we have been regularly investigated the fruiting characteristics, which are the average of Fruit Length (FL) and Width (FW), and Weight of Fruit (WF) and Individual Yields (IY), during 10 years to select good quality walnut trees.
