10. Effects of genotype and environment on mineral nutrient and protein contents Potasium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and protein contents were analysed in different almond accessions from France, Greece and Italy, during 2008-2009 Number of almond accessions on which analyses of Mineral nutrient and Protein contents were made during 2008-2009 30 accessions were analysed during both years, and 42 accessions were analysed only one year from
11. The potassium content varied 2.7 times, ranging from 465 to 1235 mg 100-1 g DW, Greatest values found in cultivars Ferrante > Babatsiko > Laurance, Ferragnes.
12. The calcium content varied 4.1 times, ranging from 160.1 to 662.8 mg 100-1 g DW. Highest values (810 – 828 mg 100 g -1 ) were found in: Laurence > Ferragnes, Kandanos 3, Athalia
13. Highest values were found in: Laurance > Babatsiko The magnesium content varied 2.1 times, ranging from 159.2 to 333.2 mg 100-1 g DW.
14. Highest values were found in: Laurance, Babatsiko, Bellou and Ferrante The phosphorus content varied 2.4 times, ranging from 309.9 to 748.1 mg 100-1 g DW.
15. Highest values (211 mg 100 g -1 ) were found in: Ferrante and Temen 1 . The protein content varied 3.0 times, ranging from 11.6 to 34.3 mg 100-1 g DW.

17. Samples were clearly separated based on the content of mineral nutrient and protein content in three groups. Samples from France had high phosphorus, magnesium and calcium content and from Greece had high calcium content.
18. Although there was not a clear separation between harvesting years, a trend of higher calcium contents was found in year 2009, compared to 2008
