Abstract
‘LaJewel’ is a late season peach for fresh and pick-your-own marketing, maturing about 15 days after ‘Elberta’. Fruits are freestone with yellow flesh. Resistance to bacterial spot [Xanthomonas campestris pruni (Smith) Young et al.] is high.
Abstract
‘Sentry’ peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) was released August, 1980, because of its productiveness, large fruit size for its early season of maturity, attractive exterior and interior color, and resistance to bacterial spot disease.
, confirmed via microscopic analysis or laboratory culture. After confirmation of bacterial spots on leaves, plants were treated with copper hydroxide (Champ WG; Nufarm Limited, Alsip, IL) to curtail the spread of the pathogen. During the growing season
the Horsfall-Barratt scale to assess the percentage of canopy affected by bacterial spot ( Horsfall and Barratt, 1945 ). Values were converted to midpercentages and used to generate area under disease progression curve (AUDPC) based on the formula Σ
Abstract
‘Florida XVR 3-25’ is a nonpungent, bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) resistant to tobacco etch and potato Y viruses and both pepper pathotypes of the spot bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (Dowson) Young et al. The combined resistances to these viruses and bacterial spot should prove useful in areas where these diseases are prevalent.
Abstract
‘Vivagold’ is an attractive, medium-sized apricot (Prunus arnieniaca L.) ripening a week after ‘Veecot’. It is moderately resistant to brown rot (Monilinia fructicola (Wint.) Honey). It has shown some bacterial spot (Xanthomonas pruni (E. F. Smith) Dowson) occasionally but not so severe as has ‘Veecot’. It was introduced in 1978 to extend the season of attractive good quality apricots.
Abstract
‘Velvaglo’ is a very attractive apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) ripening in the last week of July with ‘Goldcot’. It has moderate resistance to bacterial spot (Xanthomonas pruni (E. F. Smith) Dowson), brown rot (Monilinia fructi-cola (Wint.) Honey) and perennial canker (Leucostoma spp). It was introduced in 1978 as a later-ripening cultivar than ‘Harcot’, adapted to conditions of southern Ontario, Canada.
Abstract
‘Summerglo’ is a large, yellow-fleshed freestone peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] for the fresh market. The fruit ripens approximately one week after ‘Redhaven’. It was named and released in 1978 to meet the need for a large peach in this season. ‘Summerglo’ leaves and fruit are susceptible to bacterial spot [Xanthomonas campestris pv. pruni (Smith) Young et al.]. Flower bud hardiness is similar to or slightly better than ‘Loring’.
Abstract
‘Jerseyglo’ is a large, firm yellow-fleshed freestone peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] for the fresh market. The fruit ripens with ‘Jerseyqueen’, ‘Redskin’, and ‘Elberta’. It was named and released in 1979 in order to provide a large, attractive, firm-fleshed peach in this season with moderate levels of flower bud hardiness and resistance to bacterial spot [Xanthomonas campestris pv. pruni (Smith) Young et at.]. ‘Jerseyglo’ is recommended as a replacement for ‘Jerseyqueen’.
Abstract
‘Veeglo’ is an attractive, high quality peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) that matures during the last week in August, 9 days after ‘Redhaven’. Assessments indicate typical, moderate susceptibility to perennial canker (Leucostoma spp.) and moderate resistance to bacterial spot (Xanthomonas pruni (E.F. Smith) Dows.). ‘Veeglo’ was introduced to satisfy the requirement for a high quality fresh market or home preserving peach maturing between Redhaven and Loring, and adapted to climatic conditions in southern Ontario, Canada.
