Apple Anna, 200 Chill Hours Temperate Fruit Dorsett Golden
Temperate Fruit Apple Anna, 200 chill hours Anna apple is a dual purpose apple that is very early ripening and does well in warm climates. Anna was bred by Abba Stein at the Ein Shemer kibbutz in Israel, in order to achieve a Golden Delicious-like apple, that can be cultivated in nearly tropical areas. Sweet, crisp, ripens in late June. Excellent for eating or cooking Dorsett Golden, 100 chill hours Golden Dorsett produces a medium sized, firm, and sweet apple perfect for eating fresh off the tree. The apples, a soft yellow with a pink blush, ripen in late June or July, and after picked, they can be kept for two weeks if refrigerated. The Golden Dorsett is perfect for Gulf Coast planting. Ein Shemer, 250 chill hours The Ein Shemer Apple produces a pale yellow, medium-sized apple. The apple's sweet, semi-acidic taste is perfect for eating right off the tree or for making into applesauce or pie. At maturity, the Ein Shemer apple can reach a height and width of 12-15 feet. Ripe in July. Fuji, 250-350 chill hours Crisp and sweet, ripens in June, the Fuji apple is a small to medium size fruit with a reddish pink over yellow appearance. Apple trees require well drained soil but will grow in clay or sandy soil. Multi-graft Apple 7 gallon (FBMG does not know yet if we will receive these. Will update soon.) Two or more varieties grafted onto one rootstock. These specimens are perfect for smaller gardens where a variety of flavors and an extended harvest season is desired. -

Russians and Poles Victorious in Vanderbilt
March 15-March 25, 2001 Kansas City, Missouri 44th Spring North American Bridge Championships Vol. 44, No. 10 Sunday, March 25, 2001 Editors: Henry Francis and Jody Latham Russians and Poles victorious in Vanderbilt The four-man team captained by Andrew Gromov of Russia outscored the George Rosenkranz team 55- 20 in the second quarter of the Vanderbilt to take a lead they would not relinquish. The final tally: Gromov 150, Rosenkranz 119. Gromov played with Aleksander Petrunin and Pol- ish champions Cezary Balicki and Adam Zmudzinski. Their opponents were Rosenkranz, Sam Lev, John Mohan and Polish champions Piotr Gawrys and Jacek Pszczola. The Vanderbilt was a replay of the Open Board-a- Match Teams at the 2000 Fall NABC in Birmingham where Gromov & Co. won the event – less than a board ahead of Rosenkranz, Lev, Mohan, Gawrys, Pszczola and Eddie Wold. This was the second North American champion- ship for the Russians and the third for the Poles, who won the Spingold in 1997. The Poles, both Grand Mas- ters in the World Bridge Federation, have an impres- sive record in international competition: first in the Transnational Teams in Bermuda in 2000, second in the World Team Olympiad in the Netherlands, also in Vanderbilt winners: Adam Zmudzinski, Andrew Gromov, Cezary Balicki and Aleksander Petrunin 2000, a second and a third in the Bermuda Bowl, a sec- ond in the Rosenblum Teams and a third in the World Open Pairs.

Dihydrochalcones in Malus Mill. Germplasm and Hybrid
DIHYDROCHALCONES IN MALUS MILL. GERMPLASM AND HYBRID POPULATIONS A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Benjamin Leo Gutierrez December 2017 © 2017 Benjamin Leo Gutierrez DIHYDROCHALCONES IN MALUS MILL. GERMPLASM AND HYBRID POPULATIONS Benjamin Leo Gutierrez, Ph.D. Cornell University 2017 Dihydrochalcones are abundant in Malus Mill. species, including the cultivated apple (M. ×domestica Borkh.). Phloridzin, the primary dihydrochalcone in Malus species, has beneficial nutritional qualities, including antioxidant, anti-cancer, and anti-diabetic properties. As such, phloridzin could be a target for improvement of nutritional quality in new apple cultivars. In addition to phloridzin, a few rare Malus species produce trilobatin or sieboldin in place of phloridzin and hybridization can lead to combinations of phloridzin, trilobatin, or sieboldin in interspecific apple progenies. Trilobatin and sieboldin also have unique chemical properties that make them desirable targets for apple breeding, including high antioxidant activity, anti- inflammatory, anti-diabetic properties, and a high sweetness intensity. We studied the variation of phloridzin, sieboldin, and trilobatin content in leaves of 377 accessions from the USDA National Plant Germplasm System (NPGS) Malus collection in Geneva, NY over three seasons and identified valuable genetic resources for breeding and researching dihydrochalcones. From these resources, five apple hybrid populations were developed to determine the genetic basis of dihydrochalcone variation. Phloridzin, sieboldin, and trilobatin appear to follow segregation patterns for three independent genes and significant trait-marker associations were identified using genetic data from genotyping-by-sequencing. Dihydrochalcones are at much lower quantities in mature apple fruit compared with vegetative tissues. -

Molecular Genetic Identification of Apple Cultivars Based On
Erwerbs-Obstbau (2020) 62:117–154 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10341-020-00483-0 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Molecular Genetic Identification of Apple Cultivars Based on Microsatellite DNA Analysis. I. The Database of 600 Validated Profiles Sanja Baric1,2 · Alberto Storti1,2 ·MelanieHofer1 ·WalterGuerra1 · Josef Dalla Via3 Received: 12 March 2020 / Accepted: 24 March 2020 / Published online: 28 April 2020 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Apple (Malus× domestica Borkh.) is the most widely grown permanent fruit crop of temperate climates. Although com- mercial apple growing is based on a small number of globally spread cultivars, its diversity is much larger and there are estimates about the existence of more than 10,000 documented varieties. The varietal diversity can be described and determined based on phenotypic characters of the external and internal traits of fruit, which, however, can be modulated by environmental factors. Consequently, molecular methods have become an important alternative means for the char- acterisation of apple cultivar diversity. In order to use multilocus microsatellite data for determination of unidentified or misidentified apple varieties, a database with molecular genetic fingerprints of well-determined reference cultivars needs to be available. The objective of the present work was to establish such a database that could be applied for the molecular genetic determination of a large number of historic and modern, diploid and triploid apple cultivars. Based on the analysis of more than 1600 accessions of apple trees sampled in 37 public and private cultivar collections in different European countries at 14 variable microsatellite loci, a database with 600 molecular genetic profiles was finally obtained.
