A new and distinct variety of apple tree from a controlled cross of `Golden Delicious` and `NJ 381049` is described. The variety is distinguished by its large ellipsoid shaped fruit with skin of broad orange/red stripes on a green/yellow ground and by the texture and taste of the creamy yellow flesh which is very juicy, sweet crisp and firm. The variety was named `Creston` 1997.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to apple trees and particularly to a seedling apple tree from a controlled cross made by the Pacific Agri-Food Research Centre Summerland apple breeding program located at Summerland, British Columbia, Canada. The Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada research facility at Summerland was established in 1914. Originally called the Dominion Experimental Farm at Summerland, the name was changed to the Summerland Research Station in 1959, the Summerland Research Centre in 1994 and to the Pacific Agriculture Agri-Food Research Centre Summerland in 1996. The tree fruit breeding program was established in 1924 to provide new varieties for the tree fruit industry of British Columbia, Canada, and the world. The breeding program at Summerland has produced several tree fruit varieties including `Spartan`, `Summerred` and `Sunrise` apples (all unpatented varieties) and `Van`, `Lapins` and `Sweetheart` cherries. The tree fruit breeders typically produce several thousand hybrid seedlings each year. Under the direction of the breeder the technician, as part of his duties, propagates the seedlings, by budding onto rootstocks, to induce earlier fruiting, in "seeding" fields. Upon fruiting, the varieties are evaluated for appearance, taste, texture, harvest indices, and disease susceptibility, and growth habit of the tree in the field. Promising seedlings are propagated, in replications of 4 to 6 trees, by budding or grafting onto rootstocks and planted out as second selections in variety evaluation plots. The reproductions are evaluated for varietal stability, disease susceptibility, and fruit and tree quality. The most promising selections are re- propagated and planted out in randomized evaluation plots complete with reference varieties (commercial varieties). Upon fruiting, selections are evaluated for varietal stability in the field, and for taste, texture and appearance of the fruit, and conducting "in-house" sensory evaluation panels. The new varieties are compared to reference varieties to establish uniqueness. The present invention relates to the new and distinct variety of apple tree named `Creston`. `Creston` originated from a controlled cross of `Golden Delicious`×`NJ 381049` (unpatented) in 1966. The cross was made and the seed collected by Dr. K. O. Lapins while on a work project at Rutgers University in 1966. The seedling was planted at Summerland in 1967. The new variety was re-propagated (by budding) onto rootstocks in 1969, and given the breeders reference number `8M-15-10`. In 1976 Dr. W. David Lane was responsible for two-reproductions being made by budding and being planted in second selection variety test plots in 1977. The re-productions showed no variations from the original tree. `8M-15-10` was further re-propagated in 1986 and established into another second selection block in 1987. In 1992 four trees were planted in a randomized evaluation trial block complete with the reference varieties `Fuji` (unpatented) and `Royal Gala` (U.S. Plant No. 4121) sensory panels began in 1995. Grower panels began in 1995. `8M-15-10` was named `Creston` in 1997.
Distinguishing Characteristics
`Creston` is a large apple averaging 7.8 cm in diameter and 220 to 280 grams in weight. The fruit has an ellipsoid shape, somewhat similar to `Fuji`, but more elongated with slight ribbing and a moderately deep calyx and stem end. The skin has less than 65% orange/red stripes over a yellow/green background with non-prominent lenticels. The flesh is creamy yellow in color and very juicy. `Creston` has a sweet sub-acid taste, averaging 13% to 14.5% soluble solids and 455-700 milligrams of titratable acids per 100 grams of juice at harvest. The fruit is very crisp and firm in texture. The variety has been rated very highly in sensory evaluation panels held at the Pacific Agri-Food Research Centre. Initial storage assessments indicate the`Creston`stores for 2 months on 0°C. air storage and 4 to 5 months in controlled atmosphere (CA) storage. The tree habit is moderately vigorous and spreading.
Parent plants: `Golden Delicious` ×`NJ 381049`.
`Golden Delicious` is the seed parent and `NJ 381049` is the pollen parent.
`Golden Delicious` was developed from a chance seedling discovered in Clay Creek, W. Va. by Andrew H. Mullins.
`NJ 381049` was a selection of unknown parentage from the breeding program at Rutgers University.
Summary Of The Invention
The new and distinct variety of Malus fruiting apple tree `Creston` was bred at Rutgers University in 1966 and the resulting seedling was planted at the Pacific Agri-Food Research Centre Summerland, British Columbia, Canada in 1969. The variety has been established and is being maintained at the research facility. Evaluations began in 1977. The variety is stable with no variations occuring and demonstrates significant differences from its parents in the `Creston` is a large apple with a distinct ellipsoid shape, a moderately deep calyx and stem end and a skin color of less than 65% prominent orange/red stripes on a yellow/green background. The flesh is creamy yellow in color, very juicy, with a sweet subacid taste. The fruit has ben rated as having very crisp and firm texture. The tree is large and has a spreading growth habit, similar to `Jonagold` (unpatented). The variety matures approximately the first week of October at Summerland, `Creston` was first propagated, by budding,in 1969 and a single propagation was planted in a "seedling" evaluation plot. In 1976 four trees were made, (by budding), and planted out in the second variety test plots. The reproductions showed no variations from the original tree. `8M 15-10` was re-propagated by budding in 1982, and established in a randomized evaluation trial plot complete with the reference varieties `Jonagold` and `Royal Gala`. Sensory panels were conducted in 1995 and 1996.

TRIALS AND EVALUATIONS:
A seedling resulting from a controlled cross made in 1966 was asexually reproduced in 1969 by budding and given the breeders reference number `8M-15-10`. `8M-15-10` was reproduced and planted in cultivated variety blocks, complete with standards at the Pacific Agri-Food Research Centre Summerland orchands in 1976. The reproductions have shown `Creston` to be stable with no variations occurring. The variety has been observed and evaluated sinced first fruiting. Test plots established at PARC Summerland consisting of 4 trees of `Creston`(`8M-15-10`) were established in 1987. The variety was compared to the reference variety `Jonagold` and of approximately the same age and planted in the same area. Controlled grower trials, under test agreements, have been established in British Columbia. The tree is of medium vigor and is precocious, but tends to be biennial. `Creston` does not show and unusual susceptibility to any diseases including mildew, fireblight and apple scab.
`Creston` was tested in sensory evaluation panels in 1995 and 1996. Sensory evaluation panels consist of 10 to 12 trained panelists. About 10 apple varieties, including 1 or 2 standards, are rated per session on a hedonic (liking) scale for texture, flavor and appearance. In addition. panelists use a sensory scale to rate the intensity of crispness, hardness, juiciness, sourness, sweetness and aromatics. All ratings are on a scale of 0 to 9, with 0 being a low rating and 9 being a high rating. The standards used in sensory evaluation panels were `Fuji` and `Gala` in 1995 and 1996. `McIntosh` was included in 1996 panels as a comparator. Panelists rated `Creston` and `Fuji` as equally acceptable in appearance, texture and flavor in 1995. On sensory scales `Creston` was rated less firm and less hard than `Fuji` but as juicy, sweet, sour, and aromatic. `Creston` was rated significantly higher than `McIntosh` in flavor and texture on a hedonic scale in 1996, and significantly higher in crispness, hardness, and sweetness on sensory scales. In 1996 `Creston` rated equal to `Royal Gala` in texture and taste, and less acceptable in appearance on hedonic scales. On sensory scales `Creston` rated less hard than `Royal Gala` and equal to `Royal Gala` in crispness, sweetness, aroma, juice, and sourness. `Creston` requires multiple-picks to achieve acceptable color. Initial storage assessments indicate the fruit of `Creston` will store for 2 months in 0°C. air storage and 4 to 5 months in controlled atmosphere (CA) storage.
