Self-fertility in Red Currant

Ribes rubrum L.

Self-fertility in red currant is the ability of a cultivar to set fruit through self-pollination. This trait ensures stable yields under adverse weather conditions when the activity of pollinating insects is restricted.

In the reference 39 varieties crop Redcurrant, where this is mentioned in the description.

The degree of self-fertility in red currant is determined as the percentage of fruit set when flowers are isolated. Evaluation is conducted by comparing natural and artificial self-pollination with a control group of open pollination by insects.

Self-fertility values for most cultivars vary from 32% to 65%. Cultivars with a fruit set higher than 60%, such as Niva, Asya, Marmeladnitsa, and Serpantin, are classified as highly self-fertile, which allows them to maintain productivity under unfavorable climatic conditions.

General information about the subject — on the page Self-fertility.
