In continuation of a previous study concerning tree performance and yield characteristics of 20 Holovousy-bred read more apple cultivars, their fruit characteristics and storage potential were evaluated during 2006-2011 in comparison to commercial standards (Golden Delicious and Jonagold).Fruits of Meteor cv.had the longest storage potential, exceeding six months.
