GBT lines
From Tatiana's TOMATOBase
MO MU K
- Stablized lines derived from Black from Tula x Galina's Yellow
- indet., regular leaf cherry lines of early to mid season maturity
- Black, Pink, Apricot, Yellow, White and Green fruit colors
Seed source:
- Keith Mueller
Year grown:
Location: Kansas City and Osceola, Missouri
History
- Black from Tula x Galina's Yellow accidental cross
- Received Black from Tula seeds that were crossed.
- Galina's was next to the mother Black from Tula and most probable parent based on segregation.
- F1 produced a round 2-3 oz fruit. Color was apricot with a red internal center. Taste was good with a hint of sweet.
- F2 produced various colors, some with radial striped shoulders (stripes were from septa color) many large bilocular cherries (some triloculars), a few larger multilocular fruit (never stablized).
- Lines have not been released with one exception of GBTA. Lines may be later used as proprietary parents when making hybrids. GBTA needs to be tested crossed with known apricot varieties from TGRC. GTBG is parent line in several 2008 hybrid green lines.
