Abstract

Number of spurs per meter of limb, number of flowering spurs per spur and limb angles were counted or measured on 17 strains of Delicious apple ( Malus domesticaBorkh.) for 5 years. The spur type had more spurs per m and more flowering spurs per spur than did the standard types. Yearly variability in flowering indicated definite alternate bearing in some strains. There was no difference in the width of the limb angles among strains.
