Abstract
A new and distinct variety of apple was identified from a population of seedlings derived from an open-pollinated ‘Honeycrisp’ block. The new variety, named ‘MAIA-L’ ripens late-October. ‘MAIA-L’ is a fast-growing, vigorous tree with large leaves. The fruit of ‘MAIA-L’ is a distinctive deep red color. ‘MAIA-L’ has consistent annual cropping with minimal horticultural inputs and is resistant to fireblight, apple scab, and powdery mildew. ‘MAIA-L’ fruit are large sized, extremely crisp, with complex sweet-tart flavor and long storability.
Description
Latin name: Latin name of the genus and species of the plant claimed: Malus x domestica.
Variety denomination: Variety denomination: ‘MAIA-L’.
A new and distinct variety of apple was identified from a population of seedlings derived from an open-pollinated ‘Honeycrisp’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,197) block. This pollination was sanctioned as a part of the Midwest Apple Improvement Association apple breeding project. ‘Honeycrisp’ and other select varieties were cultivated with the intention of progeny testing open-pollinated seedlings. This superior seedling tree was identified from this progeny test at Pataskala, Ohio.
The seedling tree was planted as a 1-year-old tree at Pataskala, Ohio in 2001 and grown among a population of several hundred siblings. Evaluations of fruit quality and tree growth parameters were begun in 2005 and this seedling was identified over several years as superior based upon tree growth habit, precocity, superior fruit quality, and harvest time. Utilizing grafting reproduction, the new apple tree variety was asexually propagated by Mitch Lynd in 2010 at Pataskala, Ohio and has been observed to remain true to the description set forth herein, through successive generations. While T-budding was used initially to reproduce the new apple tree variety, although it is expected that other industry recognized budding methods would be effective.
The new variety, named ‘MAIA-L’ is distinct from ‘Honeycrisp’ as ‘MAIA-L’ ripens late-October, 5 weeks after ‘Honeycrisp’ (FIG. 1 ). Unlike ‘Honeycrisp’, ‘MAIA-L’ is a fast-growing, vigorous tree with large leaves. The fruit of ‘MAIA-L’ is a distinctive deep red color (Red Group 46B to Red Group 47C). ‘MAIA-L’ is distinct from another Honeycrisp derived cultivar, ‘MAIA-T’ (U.S. Plant application Ser. No. 15/731,791), as it ripens 2 weeks before ‘MAIA-T’, has different coloration, and a different flavor profile. ‘MAIA-L’ is distinct from ‘Howell TC2’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 28,545 P3), yet another Honeycrisp derived cultivar, in that the flesh of ‘Howell TC2’ is red, while ‘MAIA-L’ is white, and they have distinct flavor profiles. ‘MAIA-L’ has consistent annual cropping with minimal horticultural inputs and is resistant to fireblight, apple scab, and powdery mildew. ‘MAIA-L’ fruit (FIG. 2 ) are large sized, extremely crisp, with complex sweet-tart flavor and long storability.
The accompanying photographs show typical specimens of the new variety as depicted in color as nearly true as is reasonably possible. ‘MAIA-L’ photographs were taken by Diane Miller at Pataskala, Ohio.
