The tendency to heavier bearing per unit tree size of spur type apple strains relative to non-spurred ones, has led to extensive planting of spur strains in recent years. However, it was found with 'Red Delicious' that spur mutants also were different in several fruit characteristics (1, 2, 3). The present test was done to discover differences between standard 'Golden Delicious' and one of its spur mutants ('Starkspur Golden').
