Abstract

This cultivar is an early dessert apple introduced in 1979 by the Aomori Apple Experiment Station at Kuroishi, Aamari, Japan, and developed by M. Yamada, C. Suzuki, M. Ishiyama, and T. Sato. Kitanosachi was introduced to overcome some of the faults of Iwai (American Summer Pearmain), a leading early apple cultivar in Japan for more than 80 years. It is from a cross made in 1959 of Tsugaru x Iwai. It is a diploid.
