PLANT VARIETIES JOURNAL 2002 VOL 15 NO. 2 ‘Barbaresco’ A , ‘Acapulco’ A and ‘Stargazer’ were selected as comparator varieties. ‘Barbaresco’ A differed in that plant taller; tepal colour a different shade of dark red-purple (RHS 64A), distal half of leaf recurved, leaf cross-section angled, tepal inner surface base of main vein purple red, pollen colour orange, and stigma colour green. ‘Acapulco’ A differed in that tepal colour has another shade of red-purple (RHS 63B-C); taller plant height; colour at the base of main vein red-purple. ‘Stargazer’ differed in that main tepal margin colour white; style colour yellow. Seed and pollen parents are non-commercial breeding lines, therefore, were excluded. No other varieties of common knowledge have been identified by the qualified person to have floral characteristics identical to ‘Spain’. Comparative Trial The description is based on UPOV Report of Technical Examination, CPRO-DLO, Wageningen, The Netherlands, Reference number LEL 1573, and confirmed from local examination. Location: local DUS trial conducted at Silvan, VIC in an environmentally controlled glasshouse during summer period 2001-2. Conditions: cool stored bulbs planted into trays 40 by 60 cm in a pinebark based potting mix 15-18 cm deep. 15 bulbs per tray and each tray replicated. Plants spaced to express their true growth characteristics. Growth was vigorous, free of stress and plants maintained under sound cultural procedures. Measurements: observations made at random from within the plant population.

Tepal: spots on inner side present, number of spots on inner side medium to many, size of spotted area on inner side medium to large (large), spots on papillae present, colour at the base of main vein yellow (yellow green), texture of inner side papillose, undulation of margin medium to strong, type of undulation of margin fine and coarse, recurved area distal part only, degree of recurving medium. Stamen: length short to medium, main colour of filament light green, anther colour reddish-brown. Pollen: colour orange-brown. Style: main colour green. Stigma: colour dark purple. Time of flowering: early to medium. (Note: values within parenthesis are from local observations. All RHS colour chart numbers used in local observation refer to 1986 edition.) Origin and Breeding Controlled pollination: seed parent “unnamed seedling” x pollen parent “unnamed seedling” in a planned breeding program in Rijnsburg, The Netherlands. Both parents are non-commercial proprietary breeding lines within breeder’s private collection. Selection criteria: large and very erect flowers. Propagation: ‘Topsy’ proved stable through numerous generations of scale/bulb and tissueculture propagation. Breeder: Cees A. van der Voort, Rijnsburg. The Netherlands. Choice of Comparators The grouping characteristic used in identifying the most similar varieties of common knowledge was – Flower: main colour of inner side of inner tepal red-purple. Based of this ‘Woodriff’s Memory’ A and ‘Stargazer’ were selected as comparator varieties. ‘Woodriff’s Memory’ A differed in that tepal colour lighter red-purple (RHS 73 C-D); no anthocyanin colouration in middle third of the stem; leaf cross-section angled; colour at the base of main vein red-purple. ‘Stargazer’ differed in that main colour of inner side of inner tepal ca. RHS 60B-C; tepal margin colour white; style colour yellow. Seed and pollen parents are non-commercial breeding lines within breeder’s private collection, therefore, were excluded. No other varieties of common knowledge have been identified by the qualified person to have floral characteristics identical to ‘Topsy’. Comparative Trial The description is based on UPOV Report of Technical Examination, CPRO-DLO, Wageningen, The Netherlands, Reference number LEL 1391, and confirmed from local examination. Location: local DUS trial conducted at Silvan, VIC in an environmentally controlled glasshouse during summer period 2001-2. Conditions: cool stored bulbs planted into trays 40 by 60 cm in a pinebark based potting mix 15-18 cm deep. 15 bulbs per tray and each tray replicated. Plants spaced to express their true growth characteristics. Growth was vigorous, free of stress and plants maintained under sound cultural procedures.

Description: Dr. Brian Hanger, Rosemary Ridge Pty Ltd, Wantirna Mall, VIC. Malus domestica Apple ‘Baigent’ Application No: 1997/148 Accepted: 30 Jun 1997. Applicant: Brookfield New Zealand Ltd, Havelock North, Hawkes Bay, New Zealand. Agent: Fleming’s Nurseries & Associates Pty Ltd, Monbulk, VIC. Characteristics (Figure 34) Tree: vigour medium, type ramified, habit spreading. Dormant one-year-old shoot: length of internode medium, number of lenticels medium. Unopened Flower: colour (balloon stage) pink to dark pink. Flower: size medium. Petals: relative position of margins touching. Leaf: attitude in relation to shoot outwards. Leaf blade: length medium, width medium, shape of incisions of margins crenate to finely serrate, colour of upper side yellow-green RHS 147A, colour of lower side yellow-green RHS 147B. Petiole: length medium (approximately 4cm). Fruit: size medium, mean axial diameter 6.9cm, mean transversal diameter 7.6cm, position of maximum width towards stalk, shape globose, ribbing absent or very weak, crowning at calyx end weak to medium, aperture of eye closed, size of eye medium, length of sepal long, depth of eye basin medium, width of eye basin broad, thickness of stalk medium, length of stalk (medium mean length 2.5cm), depth of stalk cavity medium (mean depth 1.8cm), width of stalk cavity medium, bloom of skin absent or very weak, greasiness of skin absent or very weak, ground colour whitish-yellow RHS 13D, amount of over colour very high, over colour red, intensity of over colour dark, darkest blush colour dark red RHS 53A, lightest blush colour light red RHS 47A, pattern of over colour solid flush with stripes discontinuous at the margins with flecks of ground colour showing through, amount of russet around eye basin absent or very low to low, amount of russet on cheeks absent or very low, size of lenticels small and inconspicuous, firmness of the flesh firm, colour of the flesh bright white. Time of beginning of flowering: medium to early. Time of maturity for consumption: early. (Note: all RHS colour chart numbers refer to 1986 edition.) Origin and Breeding Spontaneous mutation: limb mutation of ‘Tenroy’ – Royal Gala observed in 1985 on the applicant’s orchard in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand. Budwood was taken from the mutated limb and propagated. Selection criteria: extremely early bright red colour development of fruit compared to Royal Gala and distinctly different pattern of colouring comprising of bold darker red stripes with flecks of ground colour showing through which extended over the entire surface of the fruit. These attributes were recognised as being desirable characteristics for both the production and marketing of high quality apple fruit. Propagation: asexually, either budding or grafting onto Malus rootstocks. Breeder: Barbara & Paul Brookfield, Havelock North, Hawkes Bay, New Zealand. Choice of Comparators Grouping characteristics used in identifying the most similar varieties of common knowledge were – Time of maturity, Fruit: colour. On these bases, two varieties ‘Tenroy’ – Royal Gala and ‘Galaxy’ were selected as the comparators as they are the most similar varieties of common knowledge. ‘Tenroy’ – Royal Gala is also the original parent of the candidate variety. During maturation a higher percentage of ‘Baigent’ fruit achieve full coverage of the red colouring pattern by a given harvest date than either ‘Tenroy’ – Royal Gala, which typically does not achieve full colour coverage, or ‘Galaxy’. Comparative Trial The information contained herein is based on overseas data sourced from the United States Plant 10,016, dated Sep 2, 1997. Where possible the data were verified by the qualified person in Australia. Location: Fleming’s Nurseries Pty Ltd, scionwood multiplication orchard, Monbulk, VIC (Latitude 38°, elevation approximately 205m) and translated into standard UPOV characteristics for Apple varieties (TG/14/8).
