hybrids between Prunus davidiana and Prunus persica
For Prunus davidiana and Prunus persica hybrids, the origin represents a genetic pedigree that determines the inheritance of resistance traits from the wild species and the agrobiological qualities of the rootstocks.
In the reference 3 varieties crop hybrids between Prunus davidiana and Prunus persica, where this is mentioned in the description.
For this group of hybrids, origin refers to the pedigree documenting the use of Prunus davidiana as a donor of genes for resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, including drought and frost. The genetic history determines the transmission of these traits to the cultivated peach.
The hybrid's origin is a determining factor in the selection of clonal rootstocks, such as the Cadaman series, as it is what governs adaptation to specific soil conditions and resistance to nematodes or viruses, for example, the Plum pox virus.
The genetic base influences agrobiological characteristics, including flowering time and the biochemical profile of the fruit. Inheritance of the wild ancestor's traits can lead to the appearance of undesirable characteristics for commercial production, such as bitterness or reduced fruit size.
