  • INF03 Reduce Lists of Apple Varieites
    ECE/TRADE/C/WP.7/GE.1/2009/INF.3 Specialized Section on Standardization of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables Fifty-fifth session Geneva, 4 - 8 May 2009 Items 4(a) of the provisional agenda REVISION OF UNECE STANDARDS Proposals on the list of apple varieties This note has been put together by the secretariat following the decision taken by the Specialized Section at its fifty-fourth session to collect information from countries on varieties that are important in international trade. Replies have been received from the following countries: Canada, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA. This note also includes the documents compiled for the same purpose and submitted to the fifty-second session of the Specialized Section. I. Documents submitted to the 52nd session of the Specialized Section A. UNECE Standard for Apples – List of Varieties At the last meeting the 51 st session of the Specialized Section GE.1 the delegation of the United Kingdom offered to coordinate efforts to simplify the list of apple varieties. The aim was to see what the result would be if we only include the most important varieties that are produced and traded. The list is designed to help distinguish apple varieties by colour groups, size and russeting it is not exhaustive, non-listed varieties can still be marketed. The idea should not be to list every variety grown in every country. The UK asked for views on what were considered to be the most important top thirty varieties. Eight countries sent their views, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, USA, Slovakia, Germany Finland and the Czech Republic.

  • Improvement of Subtropical Fruit Crops: Citrus
    IMPROVEMENT OF SUBTROPICAL FRUIT CROPS: CITRUS HAMILTON P. ÏRAUB, Senior Iloriiciilturist T. RALPH ROBCNSON, Senior Physiolo- gist Division of Frnil and Vegetable Crops and Diseases, Bureau of Plant Tndusiry MORE than half of the 13 fruit crops known to have been cultivated longer than 4,000 years,according to the researches of DeCandolle (7)\ are tropical and subtropical fruits—mango, oliv^e, fig, date, banana, jujube, and pomegranate. The citrus fruits as a group, the lychee, and the persimmon have been cultivated for thousands of years in the Orient; the avocado and papaya were important food crops in the American Tropics and subtropics long before the discovery of the New World. Other types, such as the pineapple, granadilla, cherimoya, jaboticaba, etc., are of more recent introduction, and some of these have not received the attention of the plant breeder to any appreciable extent. Through the centuries preceding recorded history and up to recent times, progress in the improvement of most subtropical fruits was accomplished by the trial-error method, which is crude and usually expensive if measured by modern standards. With the general accept- ance of the Mendelian principles of heredity—unit characters, domi- nance, and segregation—early in the twentieth century a starting point was provided for the development of a truly modern science of genetics. In this article it is the purpose to consider how subtropical citrus fruit crops have been improved, are now being improved, or are likel3^ to be improved by scientific breeding. Each of the more important crops will be considered more or less in detail.

  • CITRUS BUDWOOD Annual Report 2017-2018
    CITRUS BUDWOOD Annual Report 2017-2018 Citrus Nurseries affected by Hurricane Irma, September 2017 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Our Vision The Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration will be diligent in providing high yielding, pathogen tested, quality budlines that will positively impact the productivity and prosperity of our citrus industry. Our Mission The Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration administers a program to assist growers and nurserymen in producing citrus nursery trees that are believed to be horticulturally true to varietal type, productive, and free from certain recognizable bud-transmissible diseases detrimental to fruit production and tree longevity. Annual Report 2018 July 1, 2017 – June 30, 2018 Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration Ben Rosson, Chief This is the 64th year of the Citrus Budwood Registration Program which began in Florida in 1953. Citrus budwood registration and certification programs are vital to having a healthy commercial citrus industry. Clean stock emerging from certification programs is the best way to avoid costly disease catastrophes in young plantings and their spread to older groves. Certification programs also restrict or prevent pathogens from quickly spreading within growing areas. Regulatory endeavors have better prospects of containing or eradicating new disease outbreaks if certification programs are in place to control germplasm movement. Budwood registration has the added benefit in allowing true-to-type budlines to be propagated. The selection of high quality cultivars for clonal propagation gives growers uniform plantings of high quality trees. The original mother stock selected for inclusion in the Florida budwood program is horticulturally evaluated for superior performance, either by researchers, growers or bureau staff.

  • Citrus Trees Grow Very Well in the Sacramento Valley!
    Citrus! Citrus trees grow very well in the Sacramento Valley! They are evergreen trees or large shrubs, with wonderfully fragrant flowers and showy fruit in winter. There are varieties that ripen in nearly every season. Citrus prefer deep, infrequent waterings, regular fertilizer applications, and may need protection from freezing weather. We usually sell citrus on rootstocks that make them grow more slowly, so we like to call them "semi-dwarf". We can also special-order most varieties on rootstocks that allow them to grow larger. Citrus size can be controlled by pruning. The following citrus varieties are available from the Redwood Barn Nursery, and are recommended for our area unless otherwise noted in the description. Oranges Robertson Navel Best selling winter-ripening variety. Early and heavy bearing. Cultivar of Washington Navel. Washington Navel California's famous winter-ripening variety. Fruit ripens in ten months. Jaffa (Shamouti) Fabled orange from Middle East. Very few seeds. spring to summer ripening. Good flavor. Trovita Spring ripening. Good in many locations from coastal areas to desert. Few seeds, heavy producer, excellent flavor. Valencia Summer-ripening orange for juicing or eating. Fifteen months to ripen. Grow your own orange juice. Seville Essential for authentic English marmalade. Used fresh or dried in Middle Eastern cooking. Moro Deep blood coloration, almost purple-red, even in California coastal areas. Very productive, early maturity, distinctive aroma, exotic berry-like flavor. Sanquinella A deep blood red juice and rind. Tart, spicy flavor. Stores well on tree. Mandarins / Tangerines Dancy The best-known Mandarin type. On fruit stands at Christmas time.

MISCELLANEOUS PAPERS 4 (1969) LANDBOUWHOGESCHOOL WAGENINGEN THE NETHERLANDS OUTLINES OF PERENNIAL CROP BREEDING IN THE TROPICS BY NUMEROUS AUTHORS EDITED BY F. P. FERWERDA INSTITUTE OF PLANT BREEDING, LANDBOUWHOGESCHOOL, WAGENINGEN AND F. WIT FOUNDATION FOR AGRICULTURAL PLANT BREEDING WAGENIN GEN BIBLIOTHEEK DER LANDBOUWHOGESCBOW' WAGENIN€£#, H. VEENMAN & ZONEN N.V. WAGENINGEN 1969 «llU*»»1" Dedicated to the memory of DR. H. J. TOXOPEUS one of the main initiators of this book who did not live to see it completed Foreword Plant breeding may be regarded as a driving force towards a higher standard of living. This is particularly true of the tropics where rich sources of germ plasm provide numerous possibilities of bringing together desirable characters. Equipped with a summary of the existing knowledge and experience in this field students and resear­ chers might be stimulated to exploit these possibilities more intensively. In the autumn of 1963 a small group of scientists considered practical ways of reviewing the work already done. It soon became apparent that, especially in the sphere of the perennial tropical crops a summary of the existing knowledge would fill a gap in literature. Because of their long breeding cycles, genetic improvement of this category of plants entails long term projects. During the execution of breeding pro­ grammes there are inevitable changes in staff so that published results may be frag­ mentary and dispersed throughout various journals which are often difficult of access. In 1963 two of the staff of the Wageningen Agricultural University's Institute of Plant Breeding, Dr.
