| Abstract: | New York State, on the northern edge of the peach
growing area, needs improved varieties of peaches.
The best commercial varieties, presently available,
are too subject to injury by low winter temperatures to
bear full crops every year in most of the fruit
growing areas of the State. For this reason, the
primary objective of the peach breeding program at
the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station
is increased resistance to low winter temperatures;
that is, increased hardiness. |
