Abstract
This study was performed in 18 different tigger melon ( CUCUMİS MELO DUDAİM ) genotypes which were collected from the various villages of İdil/Sirnak. In the study, measurements of brix in fruit, SPAD, dry matter in fruit, total yield, seed weight, seed weight per fruit, seed length, number of seeds per fruit, fruit weight, fruit length, fruit width, fruit wall thickness, main stem diameter, main stem length, the main number of nodes in the stem, nod in the main stem were carried out. In addition, the experiment was performed with 4 replications including 10 plants per every replicate. The experiment was made according to the random design of the trial blocks. The data obtained at the end of the experiment statistical analyzes were made by evaluating with JMP8 program and the means were compared according to LSD test. In addition, cluster analysis was also performed in terms of similarity between genotypes in the experiment. As a result, when the fruit measurements are examined; total fruit yield was recorded with high amount in the tigger melon genotype, on the other hand, genotype number 13 of the tigger melon was recorded as the low. According to the obtained results, morphological and pomological measurements demonstrated difference from each other in 18 tigger melon melon plants and fruits.

Summary
The experiment was conducted according to the randomized block pattern and the data obtained at the end of the. Www.iiste.org experiment were subjected to JMP program and statistical analyzes were made and the means were compared according to LSD test. The experiment was conducted according to the randomized block pattern by subjecting to JMP package program. Tigger melon seed was planted directly in the soil. Seeds were planted as 60cm intervals on line and 120cm intervals between lines. The seed planting was performed on date of May 15, 2018 and the harvested on dates of 2, 7, 12 August 2018 and the yield of each harvest was recorded. On June 28, 2018, chlorophyll content (SPAD), number of main trunk knuckles, trunk length, main trunk diameter, main arm length were measured with digital caliper and meter. Average fruit weight (g), average fruit length (cm), average fruit diameter (cm), average fruit thickness (mm), amount of water soluble dry matter (WSDM %), the number of seeds per fruit (pieces / fruit), seed weight per fruit (g / fruit), seed diameter (mm), seed length (mm) measurements were made
