Title: Evaluation of Fruit Characteristics of 20 Sweet Cherry Cultivars
Author: J.V. Christensen
Abstract:
Fruit characteristics of 20 sweet cherry cultivars were evaluated in Denmark.
The early
cultivars 'Karesova Rana,' 'Ranna Cherna Edra'
and 'Merpet' had a good fruit size for their
season, but the fruits were soft. 'Adriana' was
outstanding for low cracking susceptibility.
'Kristin,' 'Oktavia' and 'Viola' are midseason
cultivars with several good characteristics.
The
late cultivar 'Sunburst' was outstanding for good
fruit size. 'Lapins' had an overall good quality.
Of the white cherries 'Flamengo Srim' had the
highest cracking resistance and it is suitable for
mechanical harvest.
