Abstract

'Hamlet', 'Correll', 'Clayton' and 'Ellerbe' varieties of peach were approved for release by the North Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station in December 1975. These four cultivars were released because of their resistance to bacterial spot, caused by Xanthomonas pruni(E.F.Sm.) Dows, their superior fruit qualities and excellent production performance. 'Correll' was named in memory of the late Professor F.E. Correll, and 'Clayton' for the senior author. The other two cultivars were named for communities in or near the North Carolina Sandhills region. The chilling requirements of these cultivars have not been determined, but appear to be similar to 'Redhaven'.
