ratio of 8.8 ( Table 1 ). The winter bud of the cultivar is dark red in color with hairs, whereas the dormant bud is reddish brown in color with a hairless bud. The cultivar shows many bearing branches, thick and short-bearing mother branches, vigorous
efficiency and precocity compared with ‘M.26’ and ‘M.9’ in sandy loam soil ( Khanizadeh et al., 2005 ). ‘SJM150’ produces very low or no suckers compared with ‘M.9’ and the same amount of burr knots compared with ‘M.9’ and ‘M.26’. ‘SJM150’ was among the 56

Myb C1 were easily observed by the appearance of prominent reddish purple spots ( Fig. 1B ), characteristic of anthocyanin production ( Griesbach and Klein, 1993 ). This result confirms that white P. amabilis can express anthocyanins if Myc Lc
is spreading with strong central leader and good branch angles. Fruits develop mainly on spurs. The one-year-old shoot is thin with short internode length. The dormant shoots are reddish brown with low density of lenticels. Its tree is precocious with
