Journal Title: FRUIT GROWING RESEARCH - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to improve the autochthonous cherry assortment with productive cultivars that have a good adaptability and ecological plasticity, superior biological potential, with quality fruits and features superior to the existing cultivars. On the fresh fruit market, the preferred cultivars are the ones with fruits of shining red colour, resistant to cracking, transportation and temporary warehousing, with the weight above 7 g. Analyzing the main phenological stages for the two cultivars, it was noticed that the cherry cultivar ’Muşatini’ is average both concerning the beginning of flowering and of fruits’ maturation. Characterizing the two cultivars, it can be noticed that the ’Muşatini’ cultivar (21.5 kg/tree) recorded superior production differences in comparison with the witness cultivar ’Boambe de Cotnari’ (16.8 kg/tree). In terms of fruits’ weight and equatorial diameter, the ’Muşatini’ cultivar (8.1 g and 25.0 mm) recorded positive values in comparison with the witness cultivar ’Boambe de Cotnari’ (7.4 g and 24.5 mm).
