Definitions

Abstract

A new apple tree (Malus domestics Borkh) ‘Monalisa’ is described. ‘Monalisa’ is a ‘Gala’-type apple notable for its high resistance to scab and glomerella leaf spot, resistance to red spider mite, low chilling requirement and uniform red-purple skin color.

Description

Latin name: Malus domestica Borkh.
Variety denomination: ‘Monalisa’.
BACKGROUND OF THE VARIETY
‘Monalisa’ is a new and distinct cultivar of apple tree Malus domestica Borkh. This new cultivar is the product of a controlled cross of female parent ‘Gala’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,637) and male parent ‘Malus 4’ (not patented), carried out at the Epagri/Caçador Experimental Station at Caçador, Santa Catarina, Brazil in 1988. ‘Monalisa’ is characterized by, and was initially selected for, its high resistance to scab (V. inaequalis), high resistance to glomerella leaf spot (C. gloeosporioides), resistance to red spider mite (P. ulmi), low chilling requirement and uniform red-purple skin color with russeting. The variety was first asexually reproduced in 2001 at the Caçador Experimental Station by grafting onto ‘M-9’ rootstock. ‘Monalisa’ has been observed to remain true to type over successive asexually propagated generations.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE VARIETY
‘Monalisa’ was first selected for its high resistance to scab (V. inaequalis), high resistance to glomerella leaf spot (C. gloeosporioides), resistance to red spider mite (P. ulmi), low chilling requirement and uniform red-purple skin color with russeting. ‘Monalisa’ is distinguished from ‘Gala’ and from similar variety ‘Cripps Pink’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,880) and other known varieties, by these characteristics, as well by its intense over-color and its high acidity.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
FIG. 1 shows fruit of ‘Monalisa’ (a) as compared to fruit of “Royal Gala” (‘Tenroy’ variety, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,121) (b); and
FIG. 2 shows fruit of ‘Monalisa’ (c) as compared to fruit of ‘Gala’ (d).
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE VARIETY
The following-detailed botanical description is based primarily on observations made during the 2009 growing season Fraiburgo, Santa Catarina, Brazil of trees planted in 2001 (‘M-7’ rootstock) and 2007 (‘Maruba’/‘M-9’ rootstock). All colors are described according to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart. The characteristics described will vary somewhat depending upon cultural practices and climatic conditions, and will vary with location and season. Quantified measurements are expressed as an average of measurements taken from a number of individual plants of the new variety. The measurements of any individual plant or any group of plants of the new variety may vary from the stated average.
