Abstract

The 'Golden Delicious' apple continues to be accepted by growers as a high-yielding cultivar, and likewise it commands a respectable place on the market. In recent years, many mutations of the 'Golden Delicious' strain have been found, have been tested and have been produced commercially (1, 3). Some of the strains which have been found in commercial orchards produce more russeting and have variable quality characteristics when compared with the standard 'Golden Delicious'. Variations in russet sports have been reported (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6).
