Abstract:
Sweet cherry breeding carried on by
the Department of Pomology at the
California Agricultural Experiment
Station at Davis is concerned primarily.
with two main objectives.
The first is
the development of early-maturing varieties
which are needed to replace
such varieties as Chapman, Burbank,
and, especially, Black Tartarian-all
of which have serious commercial
faults.
In addition, it would be desirable for the new variety to be able to
successfully pollinate the triumvirate
of Bing, Napoleon, and Lambert,
which accounts for the main commercial
production.
