Apple and Pear Breeding Strategies
Traditional breeding methods:‐ crosses (complementary recombination mating scheme)
‐ seedlings selections (superior segregants were selected, 1‐2%)
‐ evaluation of selected seedlings (I° and II° level; graphted plants);
‐ final field and market evaluation (III° level) made by growers associations co‐founding breeding activity;
We decide together the release of new varieties.

Funding after 2007Fortunately in 2007 a new private/pubblic program started. It was co‐funded by Consortium NewPlant. It joins 3 important grower associations: Apofruit Italia, ApoConerpo and Orogel Fresco
A long‐term agreement was signed between CRA and NewPlant.
Basically, we decide together the general objectives taking into account mainly grower association request. They make the final field evaluation of the advanced selections and according to us decide the release of new varieties.
They manage the results of new variety released.
