Sweet cherry breeding carried on by the Department of Pomology at the California Agricultural Experiment Station at Davis is concerned primarily. with two main objectives. The first is the development of early-maturing varieties which are needed to replace such varieties as Chapman, Burbank, and, especially, Black Tartarian-all of which have serious commercial faults. In addition, it would be desirable for the new variety to be able to successfully pollinate the triumvirate of Bing, Napoleon, and Lambert, which accounts for the main commercial production.
