Abstract
The aim of this paper was to evaluated of some sweet cherry cultivars in the Romanian North Eastern area conditions.
In period 2010-2019 studies were done, having as research material ten sweet cherry cultivars (‘Bigarreau Burlat’, ‘Van’, ‘Stella’, ‘Bing’, ‘Boambe de Cotnari’, ‘Kordia’, ‘Lapins’, ‘Summit’, ‘Hedelfinger’ and ‘Germersdorf’), which were ex situ collected at RSFG Iaşi, Romania, but also very spread in local orchards.
The number of days, active thermal balance (°C) and rainfall quantity (mm) on periods between phenological stages as follows: from bud burst (BBCH 53) to start of blooming (BBCH 61), from start of blooming (BBCH 61) to full bloom (BBCH 65), full bloom (BBCH 65) to end of flowering (BBCH 67) and from end of flowering (BBCH 67) to fruit ripening (BBCH 89) were analyzed.
In the climate conditions of the studied ten years, the time of budburst was registered from March 18th (‘Bing’ in 2019) to April 19th (‘Summit’ and ‘Hedelfinger’ in 2013). For fruit ripening of the ten cultivars of sweet cherry, it was necessary to accumulate in average 848.3°C during 48 d.
The ‘Hedelfinger’ cultivar had the longest period of development of the phenological stages until fruit ripening.
The researches carried out and the results obtained show that the studied cultivars presented good results of adaptability in the pedoclimatic conditions in the area of Romania.
