Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: The Brooks and Olmo Registry of Fruit and Nut Varieties is a compilation of fruit and nut variety descriptions first published in 1952 and cataloging cultivars from 1920 through 1950. A second edition was published in 1972, and a third was published in 1997. Since then fruit and nut variety descriptions have been published in HortScience on an approximately annual basis. Each year, fruit breeders and nut breeders contribute sections of the list, and the sections are published as one manuscript with several authors. Fruit and nut crops included are: apple, apricot, blueberry, blackberry, currant, gooseberry, raspberry, strawberry, cherry, citrus, grape, almond, black walnut, pecan, peach, nectarine, pear, quince, plum and several tropical fruits. Strawberry cultivars released up to the end of 2005 are to be included in List 43.
