PRELIMINARY SELECTION OF COMMON PRUNE TREES

The selection of Common Prune was based on thirty four trees originating from different regions of Poland.
In 1980 preliminary screening was made considering the following features: health status, yielding, time of fruit ripening, fruit weight, soluble solids content, stone adherence.
On the base of this test seven most valuable trees were selected: ‘P. I-26’, ‘PO. I-3’, ‘PO. V-3’, ‘PO. VI-3’, ‘PO. XIII-1’, ‘PO. XV-1’, ‘D. XIII-15’. Then, they were propagated and subjected to scientific examination in respect to their economical value.
