Abstract

A new cultivar 'Hongan' was originated from an artificial cross between 'Fuji' and 'Jonathan' carried out at National Institute of Horticultural & Herbal Science in 1993. The cultivar was preliminarily selected among the elite siblings for its high fruit quality in 2002. After regional adaptability test at five districts for subsequent four years as 'Wonkyo Ga-32', it was finally selected in 2006. 'Hongan' is characterized by the following. Optimum harvest time is late September. Shape of the mature fruit at 309 g on mean weight is globosity with a light red skin on a greenish yellow ground and yellowish white flesh. The fruit contains favorable total soluble solids at $13.7^{\circ}Brix$ and an acidity at 0.28%. Safe storage period for the fruit is 3 weeks at room temperature. It is resistant to Bitter rot. 'Hongan' also reveals a physiological cross compatibility with leading cultivars such as 'Gamhong' and 'Tsugaru' in addition to its maternal parent 'Fuji'. Tree topology is semi-spreading with vigorous growth habit.

신품종 '홍안'은 국립원예특작과학원에서 1993년 '후지'에 '홍옥'을 인공교배하여 얻은 실생 중 유망한 계통을 2002년 예비선발하여 2003년부터 2006년까지 4년간 '원교 가-32호'로 군위 등 5개 지역에서 지역적응시험을 거쳐 2006년에 최종 선발하였다. 과실의 적숙기는 9월 하순이고 과형은 원형, 과피는 선홍색, 바탕은 녹황색, 과육은 황백색이다. 과중은 평균 309g으로 대과종이며, 가용성고형물 함량은 $13.7^{\circ}Brix$, 산 함량은 0.28%이다. 상온저장력은 3주 정도이며, 탄저병에 저항성이다. 신품종 '홍안'은 주요 재배품종이며 자방친인 '후지' 뿐만 아니라 '감홍', '쓰가루'와 생리적 교배친화성이 있으며, 수자는 반개장성이고 수세는 강한 편이다.
