Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Mangifera plant named ‘Orange Star’ is disclosed, characterized by a unique flavor which includes a citrus component. Fruit lacks a long fiber and has a firmness at maturity which eases processing and cubing. Fruit flesh is orange, trees are observed disease resistant. The new variety is a Mangifera, suitable for the production of fruit.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Mangifera indica.
Variety denomination: ‘Orange Star’.
The new Mangifera cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor, in La Paz, Mexico. The objective of the breeding program was to produce new Mangifera indica varieties with improved fruit for commercial production. The cross resulting in this new variety occurred during 1999.
The seed parent is the unpatented Mangifera indica ‘Keitt’ . The pollen parent is the unpatented Mangifera indica ‘Lemon Mango’. The new variety resulted from seed planted in 1999. The inventor observed the seedlings during several seasons, and made a final selection of ‘Orange Star’ at a commercial nursery in La Paz, Mexico
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar was performed by grafting vegetative cuttings onto unpatented Mangifera indica rootstock. This was first performed at a commercial nursery in La Paz, Mexico during 2003 and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar ‘Orange Star’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, day length, and light intensity, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Orange Star’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Orange Star’ as a new and distinct Mangifera cultivar:
-
- 1. Citrus flavor component blends with mango flavor.
- 2. Lack of long fiber.
- 3. Firmness of the flesh at maturity for ease of cubing or processing
- 4. Intense orange color of the flesh.
- 5. Disease resistant.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Orange Star’ are similar to plants of the seed parent variety in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘Orange Star’ differ in the following;
-
- 1. Fruit of the new variety ripens more evenly than fruit of ‘Keitt’.
- 2. The new variety produces fruit over a longer period of time than the seed parent, which produces fruit for a small window.
- 3. The new variety begins fruiting earlier than ‘Keitt’.
- 4. Fruit of the new variety is easier to process, with less waste as the end of the fruit is more uniform.
- 5. Skin of the new variety is orange, skin of ‘Keitt’ is green.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Orange Star’ are similar to plants of the pollen parent variety in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘Orange Star’ differ in the following;
-
- 1. Trees of the new variety produce more lateral branches, compared to the pollen parent which grows straight up.
- 2. Trees of the new variety grow faster during the early years of planting than trees of the pollen parent.
- 3. Trees of the new variety are less susceptible to powdery mildew and typical pests of Magnifera than the pollen parent.
- 4. Fruit of the new variety is not as susceptible to bacterial black spot.
- 5. Fruit of the new variety is orange, fruit of the pollen parent is yellow.
- 6. Fruit of the new variety is larger.
- 7. Fruit shape of the new variety is broader, less elongated than fruit of the pollen parent.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Orange Star’ are comparable to the variety Mangifera ‘Kent’, unpatented. The two Mangifera indica varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, plants of the new variety ‘Orange Star’ differ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Fruit of the new variety does not wrinkle when ripe, as observed in fruit of ‘Kent’.
- 2. Fruit of the new variety does not produce white spots on the skin when ripe, as observed in fruit of ‘Kent’.
- 3. Fruit of the new variety has a longer shelf life than fruit of ‘Kent’.
- 4. Skin color of fruit of the new variety is orange, whereas skin color of fruit of the variety ‘Kent’ is green with some blush.
- 5. Trees of the new variety are less susceptible to anthracnose than ‘Kent’.
- 6. Fruit quality is less variable under variable weather conditions than ‘Kent’.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Orange Star’ are comparable to the variety Mangifera ‘Haden’, unpatented. The two Mangifera indica varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, plants of the new variety ‘Orange Star’ differ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Young trees of the new variety are less susceptible to cold damage than those of ‘Haden’.
- 2. The new variety reliably produces a fruiting crop more reliably than ‘Haden’.
- 3. Fruit of the new variety is not susceptible to internal breakdown, commercially referred to as “jelly seed”, as observed in fruit of ‘Haden’.
- 4. The variety ‘Haden’ is known to have significant susceptibility to fungal diseases. The new variety is significantly more tolerant of fungal diseases than ‘Haden’.
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color ripe fruit produced by trees of ‘Orange Star’ hanging on the tree.
The photographs were taken using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance it is as accurate as possible by conventional photographic techniques.
