Abstract

A new and distinct variety of Nectarine Tree which is somewhat similar to the Arm King Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,943) and the Summer Grand Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,879) with which it is most closely related but which is distinguished therefrom and characterized as to novelty by producing fruit which are mature for commercial harvesting approximately May 18 through May 25 in the central part of the San Joaquin Valley of central California, and which further produces fruit which display a dark red skin color and which have a firm flesh and a clingstone nature.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE NEW VARIETY
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Nectarine Tree denominated varietally as "May Lion", and more particularly to a Nectarine Tree which is characterized by producing high quality, early season fruit which are ripe for commercial harvesting between May 18 and May 25 in the San Joaquin Valley of central California, and which is further distinguished as to novelty by producing fruit which have a large size, are clingstone by nature, and have a deep dark red color.
In a continuing effort to upgrade the quality of their fruit, the applicants have, from time to time, cross pollinated nectarine trees having desirable characteristics in the hope of developing a new and distinct variety of nectarine tree which could later be introduced to the market. In these labors to produce a new variety of nectarine tree, the applicants have routinely cross pollinated parent nectarine trees having known desirable traits and grown the resulting progeny to maturity, the applicants thereafter carefully studying the progeny's characteristics to determine whether or not a new variety of nectarine tree has been produced. The instant variety of nectarine tree "May Lion" was a product of this procedure.
The "May Lion" nectarine tree is noteworthy in that it produces fruit which are somewhat similar in physical characteristics to the Mayfire nectarine tree (unpatented), which produces fruit which were ripe for commercial harvesting during the first week in May; and the May Grand Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,794) which produces fruit which are ripe for commercial harvesting during the first week of June. The May Lion Nectarine Tree produces fruit which are distinguishable from the Mayfire and the May Grand nectarine trees in several improtant respects. When compared with the fruit produced by the Mayfire nectarine tree the May Lion Nectarine Tree produces fruit which are larger in size; possess a darker red skin coloration; and has a more favorable flavor and shape. Furthermore, when compared with the fruit produced by the May Grand Nectarine Tree, the May Lion Nectarine Tree produces fruit which have a darker red coloration; which mature for commecial harvesting approximately two weeks earlier than the May Grand Nectarine Tree; and further produces fruit which have a substantially globose shape as oppposed to the rather elongated shaped fruit produced by the May Grand Nectarine Tree.
ORIGIN AND ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
The present variety of nectarine tree is the product of a successful cross pollination of an Armking Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,943) with a Summer Grand Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,879); the cross pollination being performed by the inventors in the Spring of 1983 at the applicants' orchard which is located at 11024 East Dinuba Avenue, Selma, Calif. Following the cross pollination, seeds were produced and the seeds were later germinated. Bud wood was later removed from the resulting plants in 1984 and was grafted onto test nectarine trees. The fruit produced were later examined to determine whether any desirable traits were present. When the superior qualities of the subject variety were detected and appreciated, the applicants later asexually reproduced the instant variety by budding the subject variety onto stock nectarine trees. This occurred at the applicants' same orchard in late 1985. The budding progeny were grown at the aforementioned orchard until it was determined that the new variety dependably and accurately reproduced the superior characteristics observed by the applicants in the original seedling.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The drawing is a color photograph of a characteristic twig bearing typical leaves, four fruit showing their external coloration sufficiently mature for harvesting and shipment; and two fruit halved transversely of the suture plane to illustrate the flesh coloration and the stone characteristics, all of the subject variety.

Stone color: Buff, (10-D-5).
Tendency to split: Numerous internal splits are evident, occasionally a few splits are externally visible.
Use: Fresh market for both local and long distance shipping.
Keeping quality: Good.
Shipping quality: Unknown, although the firm and crisp flesh displayed at commercial maturity indicates that the variety should have noteworthy shipping characteristics.
Resistance to disease: No particular susceptibilities were noted.
Although the new variety of nectarine tree possesses the described characteristics as a result of the growing conditions prevailing in Fresno County, Calif., in the central part of the San Joaquin Valley, it is to be understood that variations in the usual magnitude and characteristics incident to growing conditions, fertilization, pruning and pest control are to be expected.
