Abstract

This work was preliminary report on the shape of mulberry fruits and mulberry flowers. The shape of mulberry was varied with mulberry cultivars as bended oval shape (Daeshim), oval shape (Gwasang No. 2), oval-cylindrical shape (Sagyeppong), uneven heart shape (Suwonppong), and roundish shape (Cheonggangsang). The style of female flowers was also varied with cultivars as no style (Palchung), short style (Gwasang No. 2), cone style (Susungppong), and rectangular style (Daedangsang). This observation suggested that the shape and flower of mulberries are different among mulberry cultivars. It needs to further systematic study to know the shape and flower of mulberry cultivars and to elucidate the relationship between the morphological characters and mulberry cultivars.
