Abstract

During the past 25 years, the 'Delicious' apple has undergone an almost complete facelifting. Over 160 natural mutations have been found and evaluated, resulting in several new listings that are quite unlike the original 'Delicious' found on the Jesse Hiatt farm near Winterset, Iowa, in the late 1880's. In fact, some of the new strains differ so much from each other that they may rightly be evaluated as new varietiesinstead of strains.
