COLLIER FRUIT GROWERS NEWSLETTER JULY 2016 Our next meeting is Monday, July 18th at 4701 Golden Gate Parkway which is the Golden Gate Community Center. The topic is going to be " Unusual and Rare Fruit Trees that Adapt or May Adapt to Cultivation in Florida". There will not be an August meeting. See you in September Our speaker is Berto Silva, a native Brazilian who specializes in growing rare and unusual fruits. Berto was raised in northeast Brazil where he learned to enjoy several different types of fruits. In the last twenty years, he has experimented growing rare and unusual fruits from all over the world including some varieties native to the Amazon region. He has a spectacular jaboticaba arbor at his home in South Ft. Myers. He is an active member with the Bonita Springs Tropical Fruit Club and with the Caloosa Rare Fruit Exchange. Berto’s collection includes myrciarias, eugenias, pouterias, annonas, mangiferas, and campomanesias. The meeting starts at 7:30 pm at the Community Center, 4701 Golden Gate Parkway in Golden Gate City. The tasting table opens at 7:00 pm. BURDS’ NEST OF INFORMATION THIS and THAT FOR JULY MANGOS MANGOS MANGOS We suggest that you attend: The International Mango Festival is at Fairchild Tropical Botanical Garden on July 9 th &10 th from 9am -4pm.

July 2016 Newsletter
July 2016 – Achachairu (Bolivian Mangosteen) Bonita Springs Tropical Fruit Club Newsletter Who we are and what we do: The Bonita Springs Tropical Fruit Club, Inc., is an educational not-for-profit organization whose purpose is to inform, educate and advise members and the public in the selection of tropical and subtropical fruiting plants and trees, to encourage their cultivation, and to provide a social forum where members can freely exchange plant material and information. The club cooperates with many organizations, and provides a basis for producing new cultivars. We function in any legal manner to further the above stated aims. Meetings: Regular membership meetings that include an educational program are held the second Tuesday of each month. Meetings begin with a tasting table at 6:45 PM followed by a program at 7:15 PM, at the First United Methodist Church, 27690 Shriver Avenue, Bonita Springs. The meetings are held in the "Fellowship Hall" meeting room. Workshops: Workshops (monthly discussions) are held on the fourth Tuesday of each month. This open format encourages discussion and sharing of fruits and information. Bring in your fruits, plants, seeds, leaves, insects, photos, recipes, etc. This is a great chance to get answers to specific questions, and there always seems to be a local expert on hand! The workshops begin at 7pm and are also held at the First United Methodist Church, 27690 Shriver Avenue, Bonita Springs, in the "Fellowship Hall" meeting room.

They are not exacting as lo soil. They are easily ~~rown from sec•J,¡ and can alsu be propagated by shield huddine; as in the case of citrus. Attempts lo graft them on eitrus ro• )Í..,tnl'ks, however, h'' ve not l~ een successful at Escuda Agrícola Panamericana. These attempts were su~~ested by the fact that the two genera belon~ to thc same family. The culture of these trers is si rnple. They re:sist unfav orahle eonditions such as hard, rocky soil and long dry seasons. They are sometimes atlaekcd by scale insects. Little attention has .heen given their eultivation in Central America, where they are invariahly seen as dooryard trres or in a ludf-wild state. FAMILY AN ACARDIACEAE The im !)ortant family Anacardiaceae comprises about 6~ genera and sao species of trees and shrubs, sorne of which are tropical, while others are natives of the Temperate Zone. In addition to that delicious and universally popular fruit, the mango, the family includes the cashew or marañón; the jo cotes or Spanish plums~ the pistachio nut of the Med:terranean region; thc molle ( Schinus molle), a handsome ornamental tree~ ami some disa•ueea!Je memJ-.ers sunh as the noison oak or poison ivy of the United States and northern Central Ameri~a.

Mango Genetic Diversity Analysis and Pedigree Inferences for Florida Cultivars Using Microsatellite Markers

Mangifera indica, cultivar identifi cation, SSR markers, mango breeding, parentage analysis ABSTRACT. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) germplasm can be classifi ed by origin with the primary groups being cultivars selected from the centers of diversity for the species, India and Southeast Asia, and those selected in Florida and other tropical and subtropical locations. Accessions have also been classifi ed by horticultural type: cultivars that produce monoembryonic seed vs. cultivars that produce polyembryonic seed. In this study we used 25 microsatellite loci to estimate genetic diversity among 203 unique mangos (M. indica), two M. griffi thii Hook. f., and three M. odorata Griff. accessions maintained at the National Germplasm Repository and by Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden in Miami, Fla. The 25 microsatellite loci had an average of 6.96 alleles per locus and an average polymorphism information content (PIC) value of 0.552 for the M. indica population. The total propagation error in the collection (i.e., plants that had been incorrectly labeled or grafted) was estimated to be 6.13%. When compared by origin, the Florida cultivars were more closely related to Indian than to Southeast Asian cultivars. -
Mango Growing in the Florida Home Landscape1 Jonathan H
HS2 Mango Growing in the Florida Home Landscape1 Jonathan H. Crane, Jeff Wasielewski, Carlos F. Balerdi, and Ian Maguire2 Scientific Name: Mangifera indica L. include India, Pakistan, Indonesia, Mexico, Brazil, and the Philippines. Other important producers are Australia, Common Names: mango, mangga (Southeast Asia), South Africa, Ecuador, Peru, Israel, and Egypt. In the mamuang (Thai), manguier (French) United States, Florida, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii have small but locally important industries. Family: Anacardiaceae Relatives: cashew, spondias, pistachio Origin: Mangos originated in the Indo-Burma region and are indigenous to India and Southeast Asia. Distribution: Mangos are grown in tropical and subtropi- cal lowlands throughout the world. In Florida, mangos are grown commercially in Dade, Lee, and Palm Beach Counties and as dooryard trees in warm locations along the southeastern and southwestern coastal areas and along the southern shore of Lake Okeechobee. Figure 1. Selected mango cultivars. History: Mangos have been cultivated in India for more Credits: Ian Maguire, UF/IFAS than 4000 years. Beginning in the 16th century, mangos were gradually distributed around the world, reaching the Description Americas in the 18th century. The first recorded introduc- Tree tion into Florida was Cape Sable in 1833. Left unpruned many mango varieties become medium to large (30 to 100 ft; 9.1 to 30.5 m) trees. Trees are evergreen, Importance: Mangos are universally considered one of the with a symmetrical, rounded canopy ranging from low and finest fruits and are one of the most important fruit crops dense to upright and open. Tree vigor varies among variet- in tropical and subtropical areas of the world. -
