| Abstract | In the spring of 1995, one-year-old unfeathered trees of seven apple cultivars on M.9 rootstock with different levels of resistance to apple scab were planted 4.0 x 1.5 m apart in Przybroda near Poznan, Poland. No chemicals were used to protect the trees against apple scab. The cultivars tested were: 'Redkroft', 'Egeria', 'Medea', 'Ligol', 'Lodel', 'Pilot' and 'Pinova'. Among the cultivars tested, 'Redkroft', 'Egeria', 'Medea' and 'Lodel' were relatively resistant to apple scab and can be grown without chemical protection. 'Ligol', 'Pilot' and 'Pinova' were totally infected with scab in some years, and require chemical protection for profitable cultivation. 'Ligol' and 'Pinova' were the most vigorous of the cultivars tested, and 'Medea', 'Egeria' and 'Pilot' were the least vigorous. 'Lodel' and 'Pilot' had the highest eight-year cumulative yield, and 'Medea', 'Pinova', and 'Redkroft' had the lowest cumulative yield. 'Ligol' had by far the heaviest fruits, and 'Pinova' by far the lightest fruits. 'Pilot' had the best colored fruits, and 'Pinova' had the worst colored fruits. |
