“…Thus there is increasing interest in these substances and their sources 22,23 . Siberian apricot (Armeniaca sibirica), a member of the Prunoideae subfamily of Rosaceae, is a natural hybrid that is widely distributed in northern China, where it plays important roles in afforestation, conservation of soil and water, and commercial production of edible fruit pulp and oil, which has various applications 24 . Apricot kernel skin (testa), accounting for about 5% of apricot mass, is discarded as waste.…”

“…indicated the origin centers of culture apricots (Prunus armeniaca L.) as China, Central Asia and defined Near-East centers extending from Northeastern Iran to Caucasus and Central Anatolia as the secondary origin center of cultured forms. Kostina (1969) divided P. armeniaca species into 4 large eco-geographical groups and 13 regional subgroups and placed Turkey into Iran-Caucasus ecogeographic group (Layne et al 1996;Zhebentyayeva et al 2012). Anatolia (Turkey) is located within the secondary origin center of apricots, thus has a great genetic diversity (Ercisli 2004).…”
