“…Další výhodou této hrušně je její odolnost k vyššímu obsahu CaCO 3 (až 20 %). Má velmi dobrou afinitu s asijskými i evropskými odrůdami a pozitivní vliv na velikost plodů naštěpované odrůdy Walsh et al, 2015). V 1 kg osiva je přibližně 90 tisíc semen.…”

Tou cestou, jak toho dosáhnout je například využívání nových nepůvodních ovocných druhů, jako jsou odrůdy asijských slivoní a asijských hrušní a případně mezidruhových kříženců. Oba tyto druhy mají mnoho výhod, které je pro podmínky České republiky předurčují a také dosahují odpovídající kvality plodů či výnosů apod. V této metodice se zabýváme možnostmi pěstování, volbou podnoží a výběrem vhodných odrůd právě pro podmínky České republiky.

“…For instance, 'Nijisseiki' needs more than 700 hours, whereas for 'Kosui', 400 hours suffice [Faoro and Nakasu 2002]. Some of the Asian pears, such as 'Hosui' and 'Kosui', are sensitive to fire blight (Erwinia amylovora) and other bark and wood diseasesespecially in conditions of a humid climate [Griggs and Iwakiri 1977, Petri et al 2008, Walsh et al 2015, 2016. On the other hand, they exhibit a high degree of resistance towards pear scab (Venturia pirina) [Villalta et al 2005, Pitera et al 2010.…”

“…Asian pears are precocious and very productive, with trees blooming and bearing fruit as early as in the second year after the planting [Walsh et al 2015]. Due to the tendency towards an excessive fruit set, they require thinning of fruitlets.…”

The Asian pear tree (Nashi), originated in China and Japan, where it is commonly grown. In Europe, in Poland in particular, it remains almost unknown, despite the fact that its cultivation has been proven to be possible there. The aim of the experiment-carried out between 2008 and 2015 at the Fruit Experimental Station Samotwór, next to Wrocław-was to evaluate the growth intensity and yielding of several Asian pear tree cultivars: 'Kosui', 'Shinseiki', 'Nijisseiki', 'Chojuro', 'Hosui', and 'Shu Li'; as well as the quality and biological value of their fruits. 'Conference', which is widespread in Europe, was chosen as the control variety. 'Conference', 'Shu Li', and 'Hosui' showed highest growth intensity, whereas the trees of 'Shinseiki' were the smallest. In terms of yields over the period of eight years following the planting, 'Chojuro' and 'Shinseiki' performed best, while the least fruits were obtained from the 'Nijisseiki' cultivar. Significantly heaviest and biggest fruits were collected from the Chinese 'Shu Li' cultivar. In 2012, Nashi fruits had similar carotenoid, calcium, and magnesium contents as the fruits of 'Conference'.

“…Fire blight-resistant european pears often are not precocious and productive. In an attempt to improve pollination, precocity, and productivity in fire blighttolerant 'Magness' pear, asian pear trees were used as a pollinizer (Walsh et al, 2015). In this process, they found that asian pears could be planted as a viable alternative crop for local fruit growers.…”

Adaptability and feasibility of table grape (Vitis vinifera or Vitis labrusca), asian pear (Pyrus pyrifolia), and quince (Cydonia oblonga) production under the high desert conditions of southwest Idaho in the Intermountain West region of the United States were studied. ‘Alborz’ table grape was harvested between 1 and 15 Sept. and with proper thinning, this cultivar had outstanding clusters and berries and could be a successful table grape for planting at commercial scales in warmer spots under conditions of this study. ‘Kashishi’ and ‘Autumn Royal’ were late-season cultivars and had large berries with excellent quality. ‘Ralli’, also called ‘Anahita’ in the Intermountain West, had attractive clusters and berry color, but was sensitive to frost and had poor production. ‘Princess’ grape was harvested between 5 and 30 Sept. and had poor fruit set, but berries had outstanding flavor. ‘Niitaka’ asian pear had the largest and firmest fruit with the lowest soluble solids concentration (SSC) among all tested asian pears. ‘Semi Dwarf Shinko’ asian pear had larger fruit than ‘Kikusui’ and ‘20th Century’ but smaller than ‘Niitaka’. However, ‘Kikusui’ and ‘20th Century’ had excellent fruit flavor and quality. Thus, ‘Kikusui’, ‘20th Century’, and ‘Niitaka’ asian pears can be chosen for planting under condition of this study. ‘Aromantnaya’ and ‘Rich’ quinces matured earlier and had lower fruit firmness than other cultivars. These cultivars can be planted for early market. Based on this study, ‘Van Deman’ can be chosen for fresh consumption if sweet cultivars are in demand by the market. However, ‘Rich’ and ‘Smyrna’ quinces can be chosen if fruit with large size and bright yellow color is preferred.
