  • Evaluation of Fruit Cultivars
    CORVINUS UNIVERSITY OF BUDAPEST FACULTY OF HORTICULTURAL SCIENCE MODERN HORTICULTURE EVALUATION OF FRUIT CULTIVARS Authors: Zsuzsanna Békefi (Chapter 3, 10) Géza Bujdosó (Chapter 9) Szilvia Kovács (Chapter 4, 7, 8) László Szalay (Chapter 5, 6) Magdolna Tóth (Chapter 1, 2) 1. Apple breeding trends and aims in the world. Successful and promising new cultivars Author: Magdolna Tóth 1.1. A brief history of apple cultivation and breeding Apple is one of the oldest fruit species. Apple residues were found e.g. at Jericho, in the Jordan valley and in Anatolia.Their origin is estimated to around 6500 BC, but it is impossible to identify from where these fruits got there.The most likely hypothesis is that the firts place of involving apple into cultivation was the territory between Caspian Sea and Black Sea, and apple was grown in this area already around 3000 BC. Actually, the discovery of grafting determined the further history of domestic apple. It gave not only the possibility for growers to reproduce a good quality tree, but it allowed the survival of the best ancient varieties as well. It is almost sure, that domestic apple arrived in Europe by Roman intermediation. In the 3rd century, the Romans established the first plantations in the territory of the present France, Spain and Great-Britain. In later centuries, some emperors (e.g. Charles the Great) and mostly religous orders had a great role in the preservation and renewal of apple cultivation. The widespread distribution of apple cultivation began in the 12th century. The first named cultivars appeared at this time, and according to the propagation possibilities of the age, the seeds of these varieties reached all places of the expanding world.
