, seediness, red drupelet incidence, and decay resistance. More recently, primocane fruiting has become a major focus in blackberry breeding ( Clark and Finn, 2008 ; Strik et al., 2007 ). In the last years, the University of Arkansas has released primocane-fruiting

Preharvest apple ( Malus × domestica Borkh.) fruit drop, which occurs before fruit develop optimum red color, maturity, or size, usually causes a serious economic loss. Conversely, picking fruit before adequate maturity may lead to poor

), and are important ornamental trees in temperate zones because of their excellent floral displays (flower type, diameter, shape, and color), colorful fruit (shades of lime green, amber, gold, yellow, orange, red, and purple), wide range of growth habits

responsible for coloration during fruit ripening ( Hirschberg, 2001 ; Ronen et al., 2000 ). Wild-type tomato is reported to be red in color resulting from a mutation in CYCB. The carotenoid profile of red tomato is very similar to that of red watermelon

are encrusted with lantern-like and membranous capsules, and the peels of fruit at the same developmental stage can display a variety of colors, including dark green, yellow green, light green, pink, and bright red. Many factors affect the colors of

warmer parts of the world, including the Mediterranean regions, California, South Africa, and Australia. However, optimum fruit color development, particularly red blush at harvest, is still a major problem with ‘Pink Lady’ apples in these apple

orchard located in Norfolk County, Ontario. The same orchard was used for all years of study. Trees were planted in 1998 on M.26 rootstock. In 2003, fruit with either a low or high degree of red color were subjected to 2 d of preconditioning at either 10

of red raspberry in the background of ‘Newberry’ through ‘Logan’, ‘Boysen’, and SCRI 75158B1 helps explain ‘Newberry's’ color and appearance. ‘Newberry’ was originally selected for its large fruit size, very good flavor, vigor, productivity, and

region of North Carolina. Therefore, plantings of ‘Von’ are expected to have similar harvest dates and yield potential for growers in this production area. Fruit and plant characteristics. Fruit of ‘Von’ has good drupelet set with very little observed

leaves, flowers, fruit peel, and pulp that can serve not only as excellent landscape varieties but also breeding material for apple varieties with red flesh. In addition, they can be used for the development of products (teas, beverages, and essential
