Sažetak
The wild olives (Olea europaea ssp. europaea var. sylvestris) emerge from seeds of either cultivated or wild populations. Preservation of biological diversity and the source of raw materials for industry (leaf) are the basis for their wider research. There is a large presence of wild olives in extensive olive groves on the island of Ugljan in Zadar County. Some individuals differ in fruit size, fertility, and resistance to drought and harmful organisms. The aim of this preliminary research is to morphologically describe six isolated individuals (trees) of wild olives located on the island of Ugljan. In the period from January to November 2017, their morphometric examination was carried out. It included measurements of five morphological characteristics of the leaf, four of the inflorescence, thirteen of the fruit, and twelve of the stone. The measurements were carried out according to the international method for the description of olive cultivars used by the International Olive Council (IOC). The comparison of characteristics was performed by one-way analysis of variance, and the reverse Tukey test was used to compare mean values. By comparing the morphological characteristics of leaves, inflorescences, fruits, and stones, significant differences were found among the studied individuals. According to the characteristics of the leaf and the number of flowers per inflorescence, one individual was singled out, for which the largest average leaf area and the largest average number of flowers per inflorescence were determined. The highest average mass of fruit and stone was found only in one of all the research individuals. Morphological characteristics of leaves and fruits at harvest are influenced by the cultivar, but also by a number of other agroecological factors. The obtained preliminary results are useful for mass selection when selecting individuals of interest for further vegetative reproduction, which would be a preparation for genetic identification research.
