    ADAMS PEARMAIN Herefordshire, England 1862 Oct 15 Nov Mar 14 Adams Pearmain is a an old-fashioned late dessert apple, one of the most popular varieties in Victorian England. It has an attractive 'pearmain' shape. This is a fairly dry apple - which is perhaps not regarded as a desirable attribute today. In spite of this it is actually a very enjoyable apple, with a rich aromatic flavour which in apple terms is usually described as Although it had 'shelf appeal' for the Victorian housewife, its autumnal colouring is probably too subdued to compete with the bright young things of the modern supermarket shelves. Perhaps this is part of its appeal; it recalls a bygone era where subtlety of flavour was appreciated - a lovely apple to savour in front of an open fire on a cold winter's day. Tree hardy. Does will in all soils, even clay. AERLIE RED FLESH (Hidden Rose, Mountain Rose) California 1930’s 19 20 20 Cook Oct 20 15 An amazing red fleshed apple, discovered in Aerlie, Oregon, which may be the best of all red fleshed varieties and indeed would be an outstandingly delicious apple no matter what color the flesh is. A choice seedling, Aerlie Red Flesh has a beautiful yellow skin with pale whitish dots, but it is inside that it excels. Deep rose red flesh, juicy, crisp, hard, sugary and richly flavored, ripening late (October) and keeping throughout the winter. The late Conrad Gemmer, an astute observer of apples with 500 varieties in his collection, rated Hidden Rose an outstanding variety of top quality.

  • New Apple Cultivars with Resistance to Multiple Diseases on the Way

    New Apple Cultivars with Resistance to Multiple Diseases on the Way

    NEW APPLE CULTIVARS WITH RESISTANCE TO MULTIPLE DISEASES ON THE WAY New apple cultivar development is well underway for RosBREED, thanks to a cutting-edge rapid breeding technique and application of DNA information generated in the project. Dr. Jay Norelli at the USDA-ARS Appalachian Fruit Research Station, Kearneysville, WV, is breeding apple trees with genetic resistance to scab and fire blight, two major challenges for U.S. apple growers. Apple scab is a common fungal disease managed by pesticide sprays and clearing leaf debris at season’s end. Fire blight is a bacterial disease difficult to prevent and even harder to control once an orchard is infected. Fortunately, we have sources of genetic resistance to the two diseases for breeders to use as parents. ‘Enterprise’ carries genetic resistance to both scab (Rvi6 resistance factor originally from the wild species Malus floribunda) and fire blight (FB7 source from heritage cultivar Cox’s Orange Pippin), and ‘Splendour’ carries resistance to fire blight at another genetic location (FB5, original source still under investigation). ‘Honeycrisp’ carries another resistance factor for scab (RviHC) and an allele for its characteristic crisp fruit texture, for which RosBREED has developed a DNA test (Ma-Indel). Using traditional selective breeding strategies to combine all these resistance alleles into a single Norelli’s breeding scheme for combining scab resistance, fire blight individual would take decades, even enhanced with resistance, and fruit quality traits into one apple cultivar. DNA tests. Apple trees generally don’t bloom until they’re around four years old. Even if a breeder knows a young tree would make a good parent, they must wait years to cross it.

  • Factors Associated with Spartan Breakdown of Apple

    Factors Associated with Spartan Breakdown of Apple

    FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH SPARTAN BREAKDOWN OF APPLE by Raymond Laurent Granger A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research of McGill University in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Plant Science, Macdonald College of McGill University, c Montreal• March, 1979 iii - • I dedicate this thesis to my wife UIREILLE ABSTRACT FACTORS ASSOCIATED HITH SPARTAN BREAKDOWN OF APPLE DEPARTMENT OF PLANT SCIENCE RAYMOND LAURENT GRANGER Quebec-grown Spartan apples were compared with those from British Columbia in an effort to explain why B.C. fruits are more susceptible to the Spartan breakdown storage disorder. Based on fruit diameter apples were sized into small, medium and lar~e categories from Quebec and medium, large and extra large from British Columbia. Peel and flesh tissues of individual apples from each category were analysed for total N, P, K, Ca, Mg and Zn. Firmness, percent red colour, specific gravity, moisture content, titrateable acidity and percent soluble solids along with and release rates also were determined on co2 c2n4 individual fruits in every category. Large fruit size, decreasin~ firmness and high or H release co2 c2 4 rates expressed on a fruit basis were associated with Spartan breakdown development in cold storage. The predictive values of the various mineral analyses for Spartan breakdown were in the following order: peel Mg > flesh K > flesh P > flesh Mg > flesh Ca > peel K > peel Ca. The British Columbia apples contained significantly higher levels of all elements except those of N and Ca which were not significantly different in the fruit from both pr.ovinces.
