Abstract
A new and distinct variety of peach tree, which has a low winter chilling requirement of approximately 250 chill units (cu). The tree is large size, highly vigorous with a semi-upright growth habit, and has showy pink flowers. Glands are small and reniform in shape and isolated to the basal portions of leaves. This tree, which has been denominated ‘UFO’, is a regular bearer of heavy crops which are large for the moderately early ripening season, with yellow and very firm non-melting fresh, semi-freestone fruit of peento shape. Fruit are uniform, attractive, substantially symmetrical shape, and have an attractive 50 to 70% striped red skin color. The fruit ripens 10 to 15 days after ‘UFGold’ in mid- to late May at Gainesville.
Description
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of peach (Prunus persica (L.) Bastch) tree named ‘UFO’, and more particularly to a peach tree adapted to a mild winter climate. The tree produces peento (donut, flat or saucer shape) fruit with good eating quality, semi-freestone, and yellow, non-melting flesh, maturing in mid- to late May at Gainesville. Asexual propagation was performed at Gainesville, Fla., where the selection was made, and top worked trees were fruited the past two years. Contrast is made to ‘UFGold’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,315) peach, a standard variety, for reliable description and contrast. This new peento peach variety is a promising candidate for a unique fruit on the fresh market. It retains fruit firmness at the full flavor, tree ripe stage for 10 days on the tree.
This peach tree (genotype) originated in the fruit breeding program at the University of Florida, located at Gainesville, as a self-pollination of Fla. 95-10pc (non-patented), a non-melting flesh peach from the program. ‘UFO’ was observed with a crop in 1997, and was selected from about 30 siblings in 1998 when it bore a heavy crop and was determined to have unique tree and fruit characteristics making it worthy for commercial fresh fruit production. It was designated as Fla. 98-7pc and was asexually propagated at Gainesville as a uniform variety by topworking 3-year-old trees and by budding to young seedlings of ‘Flordaguard’ (non-patented) rootstock. There are no effects of this rootstock on this scion variety that are known to the inventor.
The new and distinct variety of peento peach bears yellow, non-melting flesh fruit, and has a moderate-chilling dormancy requirement estimated to be 250 chill units based on time of bloom in relation to standard varieties. ‘UFO’ blooms about 5 days after ‘UFGold’ peach at Gainesville, bearing 50 to 70% red skin and yellow flesh fruit. When grown in subtropical climates to take advantage of its early bloom (low-chilling), ‘UFO’ is the first described, non-melting flesh, peento peach to ripen in the USA.
The present invention resulting in ‘UFO’ peach tree is characterized by non-melting flesh, peento shape, and attractive fruit of excellent flavor and eating quality on a tree adapted to mild winters. The trees are vigorous, productive, and regular bearing. Trees attain in two years, a height of three meters and a spread of two meters at Gainesville. The first fruit ripen in mid-to late May at Gainesville, about 95 days from full bloom, which is about 10 to 15 days after ‘UFGold’. The fruit are uniformly large (60 to 80 g) for a peento peach. Ripe fruit have 50 to 70% red (solid and stripes) skin with small flecks of red pigment in the flesh, but no red in the flesh surrounding the pit. The flower anthers are light red to yellow, a common characteristic of many standard peach and nectarine varieties.
The accompanying drawing is a color photograph which shows a typical specimen of the fruit, leaf, and stem of the new variety as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make in a color illustration of this type. The photograph shows an attractive shape and exterior coloration of three specimens of fruit above a ruler in a stem end view, a blossom end view, and a fruit cut lengthwise at the suture.
The tree, flowers, and fruit may vary in slight detail due to variations in soil type, cultural practices, and climatic conditions. The present botanical description is that of the variety grown under the ecological conditions prevailing at Gainesville, Fla. Colors (except those in common terms) are described from “The Pantone Book of Color” published by H. N. Abrams, Inc., N.Y. 1990.
