Abstract
A new and distinct variety of sweet orange tree (Citrus sinensis) named ‘Carninka’. ‘Carninka’ is notable for its firm, late maturing fruit.
Description
Genus and species: Citrus sinensis.
Variety denomination: ‘Carninka’.
None
The new orange tree ‘Carninka’ originated as a whole tree mutation of a ‘Palmer’ navel orange tree (not patented). The mutation was discovered in 2005 in a commercial orchard of ‘Palmer Navel’ trees on ‘Swingle’ citrumelo rootstock (not patented) at Patensie, South Africa, and was distinguished by its markedly late maturity as compared to other navel orange trees, even those considered to be late-maturing. Asexual propagation by budding was first carried out in 2005 at Patensie to determine whether the desirable characteristics of the mutation would carry through to asexually propagated progeny. It has been found that the desirable characteristics are in fact reproduced through asexual propagation, and remain stable through successive generations.
‘Carninka’ is a new and distinct orange tree notable for its late maturity as compared to ‘Palmer Navel’ and other late maturing orange varieties.
The colors of the claimed variety may vary with lighting conditions. Color characteristics of the variety should therefore be determined with reference to the observations described herein, rather than from these illustrations alone.
The following detailed botanical description is based on observations of the original tree of the variety, planted in 1983 and grown on ‘Swingle’ citrumelo rootstock. Observations were recorded and photographs taken during the 2008, 2009 and 2010 growing seasons at Patensie, South Africa. It should be understood that the characteristics described will vary somewhat depending upon cultural practices and climatic conditions, and can 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. Colors are described with reference to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (2007) (R.H.S.) and the Citrus Research International Colour Prints (Nelspruit, South Africa, 2005).
