This new variety, which requires 350-400 chilling units of dormancy, is considered to be a nectarine tree of early season maturity, ripens in early to mid-May in the medium chill zone of Texas, which produces white fleshed sub acid fruit that are very firm, attractively colored, and suitable for both local and regional markets.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention
This invention relates to nectarine trees and, more specifically, to nectarine trees referred to as a variety of Prunus persica named ‘Smooth Delight One’, which requires approximately 350 to 400 chilling units of dormancy, produces an high quality, firm clingstone sub-acid white fleshed nectarine that matures early in the season.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The ‘Smooth Delight One’ nectarine is characterized as to novelty and is otherwise noteworthy by producing a white nectarine that ripens in the early season; is considered good to high quality; and which is firm and has an attractive coloration. In this regard, the present variety of nectarine tree bears fruit that are ripe for commercial harvesting and shipment the second week of May when grow in south central Texas. ‘Smooth Delight One’ ripens 5-7 days after ‘Flordaking’ (not patented, Andrews et al., 1979) and about a week before ‘TexKing’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 14,627).
Origin of the Variety
The present nectarine tree was the result of an ongoing Stone Fruit Breeding Program of Texas A & M University, College Station, Brazos County, Tex. To this end, controlled crosses are made each year to produce seedling populations from which improved progenies are evaluated and selected.
The seedling ‘TX2A232LWN’ (‘Smooth Delight One’) was identified at the Texas A & M University Horticultural Farm in College Station, Tex. in 2003, and was chosen from a population of seedlings that resulted from seed from a cross between ‘Sunmist’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,871, Apr. 29, 1997) used as the female parent and ‘Arctic Star’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,332, Oct. 17, 1995) used as the male (pollen) parent. Resulting seed from this cross were planted at the Texas A & M University Horticultural Farm in College Station, Tex. ‘TX2A232LWN’ was marked for subsequent observation and noted as having exceptional characteristics. Two-year and older trees of the variety were subsequently evaluated during the 2005 through 2011 fruit growing seasons in both California (Fowler) and Texas (Floresville and College Station).
Asexual Reproduction of the Variety
‘TX2A232LWN’ was bud grafted onto virus-free Nemaguard (not patented, Brooks and Olmo, 1997) nectarine rootstock in June 2003 at the nursery site in Oakdale, Calif. The variety was subsequently planted at the experimental orchard in the central portion of the San Joaquin Valley, near Fowler, Fresno County, Calif. and in two sites in Texas (College Station and Floresville). Fruit from the resulting propagation has been evaluated during the period from 2005 to 2010 fruit seasons. This evaluation clearly demonstrated that the re-propagated trees were true to the characteristics of the original seedling in all observable aspects.

BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE VARIETY
Referring more specifically to the pomological details of this new and distinct variety of nectarine tree, the following has been observed under the ecological conditions prevailing at the experimental orchards in the medium chill zone of Texas and in Fowler, Calif. on mature five-year old trees. All major color code designations are by reference to The R.H.S. Colour Chart (2001) provided by The Royal Horticultural Society of Great Britain. Colors are approximate as color depends on horticultural practices such as light level and fertilization rate, among others.
