where this is mentioned in the description.
For sweet cherry, this trait is not quantitative and has no units of measurement. In breeding literature and variety testing protocols, it is treated as a descriptive characteristic that reflects the history of a specific cultivar's development.
Data on origin are used to identify the genetic base, predict the plant's adaptive capabilities, and assess its ecological-geographic type. Knowledge of genetic relationships is essential for an agronomist to select pollinizer cultivars, as most sweet cherry cultivars are self-incompatible.
