Apple tree Renet Kichunova

Content:

Apple-tree Renet Kichunova is a variety of winter ripening period. Bred on the territory of the All-Russian Research Institute of Genetics and Breeding named after V.I. I. V. Michurin. The author of the apple variety Renet Kichunova was S.F. Chernenko. By sowing seed material from Michurinsky Renet pepinovy with free pollination, this variety was bred. Today the apple variety Renet Kichunova is at the stage of zoning in the territory of the regions of Russia: North-West, Central, Volgovyatsk region, Central Black Earth region.

In the apple variety Renet Kichunova, an increased growth of fruit trees is noted, the crown of the plant is formed with a rounded appearance. The color of the bark of the main branches is greenish with a gray tint, the arrangement of the main branches is vertical with a slight deviation. The rest of the secondary branches are at right angles to the trunk. The crown forms a large number of branches that overgrow the destination (twigs, ringlet, spear). In the fruiting of the Renet Kichunova apple tree, the shoots of the last season, twigs, are mainly involved, biennial wood participates in the formation of the harvest.

The bark of the shoot is reddish-brown; closer to the base, the color changes to green with a gray tint. The leaf plates are of medium size, the shape is oblong, along the edge there is a slight framing in the form of a crenate-type irregularity. The texture of the leaf is smooth, with a pronounced glossy finish. The petioles at the base have an enhanced color; they form a right angle to the shoot. Stipule of filamentous type.
The inflorescences of the Renet Kichunova apple tree are below the average size of the saucer-shaped. The color is almost snow-white. The flower petals are of a solid type, with a slight corrugation. Slightly above the anther is the stigma of the flower, not higher than 0.5 centimeters.

Medium-sized fruits of the Renet Kichunova apple tree (in some areas of cultivation, the apple size exceeds the average), the uniform formation of the fruit, the forms are correct, rounded-flattened. Dullness on the surface of the apple. Yellow with a green tint, with a slight blush, slightly washed out on the sunny side. The blush is very bright red. The blush background is filled with clear stripes and blotches of a more saturated dark red tone. On the colored side of the fetus, pronounced subcutaneous dots appear. A shortened peduncle, relatively thin, emerging from the center of a small funnel. The walls of the funnels are of a bright rusty color, in some cases the rusting appears just above the wall of the funnels.

Large cup size, open type. They are located in a fairly wide, recessed saucer, which has a slight tuberosity of the walls. The sub-cup tubes are formed in a cupped shape. The tubule is not connected to the seed nests. Closed apple seed chambers. There is no axial cavity.

Very dense white flesh. Good, pleasant sweet and sour taste. Chemical analysis of fruits showed the following results on the composition of elements: the total of sugars does not exceed 11.2%, titratable acids in the amount of 0.85%, dry matter is 14.9%, ascorbic acid in the amount of 24.3 mg per 100 grams of product, P-active catechins-229.3 mg per 100 gram of raw product.
As mentioned above, the Renet Kichunova apple variety is distinguished by late winter harvest ripening.Very good storage periods for fruits under the conditions of a special room, almost until the first days of May, the harvested crop is able to maintain its taste and external qualities, of course, subject to all the relevant requirements for storage conditions. If expressed as a percentage, then this is 87% - the safety of commercial quality. 52% of this number is the first class product.

Apple trees by Renet Kichunova do not belong to early maturing and the first harvest can be harvested only when the age of 7-8 years after the moment the seedling is planted in a permanent growing place. At the time of 15 years of age, you can harvest up to 62 kilograms of the crop from each tree. Under the most optimal growing conditions, this number rises several times, up to 120 kilograms per tree. Very high rates of resistance of the fruit tree to cold winters. Also, a very strong immunity of the crop and leaf cover to such a disease as scab.
